Flexible working is possible. Anna Freud is a world-leading mental health charity for children, young people and their families. Our mission is to close the gap in wellbeing and mental health by advancing, translating, delivering, and sharing the best science and practice with everyone who impacts the lives of children, young people and their families. More information about Anna Freud is available on our website: http://www.annafreud.org/about/. We value diversity and aim to have diverse workforce that reflects the community and our service users, in line with our vision, values and inclusion commitments. We encourage applications from all sections of the community. The Module sits within the Master of Research (MRes) in Developmental Neuroscience and Psychopathology (DNP), a two-year Masters programme, which is a collaboration between Anna Freud, University College London and The Child Study Centre at Yale University in the USA. The MRes brings together thinking from multiple perspectives, with a particular focus in the role of neuroscience in understanding child psychopathology. Students spend their first year in London (based at Anna Freud) and their second year at Yale, where they undertake a substantial research project. The student cohort is small (generally 14 students per year) and carefully selected. All UCL courses at Anna Freud sit within the Postgraduate Studies. This post provides a forum for the successful candidate to develop skills and experience in teaching and delivery of an innovative and well-established MRes programme. Working within a dynamic and friendly team, including the Programme Officer, Programme Director and Deputy Directors as well as the wider group of teaching staff, the post-holder will be required to undertake the main tasks of delivering a module on Research Skills in Term 3, which involve weekly 2.5 hour face to face teaching as well as preparation and marking throughout the year.
