Graduate Teaching Assistant: ESD

The MSc Environment and Sustainable Development (ESD) programme is strongly interdisciplinary, attracting participants from a wide variety of disciplines, including anthropologists, economists, geographers and natural scientists, as well as planners, architects and engineers. A central concern of the programme is to equip participants with a critical understanding of the sustainable development debate and practice, unveiling the political, social and economic forces underlying environmental conflicts in urban regions of the global south and exploring concrete approaches to address their causes. The programme adopts an international comparative perspective, exploring the specific conditions for intervention in different contexts all over the world.

The Graduate Teaching Assistant provides support to the Programme Leaders of the MSc Environment and Sustainable Development (ESD) programme for academic administration, and basic academic inputs into the programme. 

This post is available from September and is on an open-ended contract.
