Subject Description
French studies primarily focus on linguistics and literature, and have
degree-awarding powers at all academic levels, including third-cycle
level education. In addition to freestanding courses, the subject is
part of various programmes at the Department, such as the Master’s
Programme in Language and Intercultural Communication, the Subject
Teacher Programme and the Nordic Master Programme for Language
Teachers. The subject may be taught through classes on campus as well
as through online courses. Within the field of French studies,
research is primarily conducted in areas such as linguistics,
literature, and language acquisition. Research conducted within the
field of study also contributes to the department’s interdisciplinary
research initiatives.

Duties
An Associate Senior Lecturer shall be given the opportunity to develop
autonomy as both a researcher and teacher, and to acquire the academic
and pedagogical qualifications required to fulfil the eligibility
requirements for a Senior Lecturer position. The duties include
conducting research for at least 50% of the time, following an
established research plan within French literary studies, while also
engaging in teaching and administrative responsibilities for a maximum
of 50% of the workload.

Teaching responsibilities may cover all levels of education, both
on-campus and online, and may include both daytime and evening
classes. Courses may cover a wide range of subjects: language
proficiency, French literature and linguistics (e.g. courses in
literature, grammar and translation), and culture and society. They
may be available both as freestanding courses or as part of
interdisciplinary courses and programs. Teaching within the Subject
Teacher Programme may also occur through courses focused on didactics,
as well as visits and seminars associated with on-site training (VFU).
The subject offers contrastive courses that are taught in Swedish.
Teaching within the department’s other interdisciplinary courses and
programs may also take place, both in Swedish and in English. Teaching
responsibilities also include supervision, seminars, course design,
course administration and course development, among other tasks. The
position may also involve additional duties such as administrative
tasks and development work.

Assistant Senior Lecturers are expected to stay updated on
developments in the field of French literature, actively seek external
research funding, and contribute to the department’s pedagogical and
scientific development efforts. Applicants shall therefore explain how
their research aligns with and may contribute to the department’s
existing research areas in their application.

Most of the work is conducted on-site at the University of Gothenburg,
and the successful applicant is expected to actively engage in the
daily operations of the department. Work within the subject is
conducted within a teaching team, and the successful applicant is
expected to contribute constructively, in a collegial spirit, to both
the field of study and the department as a whole.

The successful applicant is expected to actively participate in the
department’s development initiatives and contribute to fostering a
positive work environment, including attending workplace meetings,
internal meetings and conferences.
