The Cities Group in the Department comprises  12 academic staff and also includes a thriving postgraduate community. The Group’s interests include urban social and economic inequality, health and wellbeing; comparative urbanisation with an emerging interest in the global South; understanding informational and financial flows within and between cities, and the use and representation of urban space.  Scholars working in both contemporary urban research as well as in historical fields will be considered. The positions are aimed both at strengthening these core interests and in extending them. Scholars from geography or allied social sciences and humanities-based disciplines are encouraged to apply.

The closing date for applications is 17^th April with interviews scheduled for 7^th May.
