Main Objectives

• All academics are responsible for the dissemination of knowledge (teaching and learning), creation of knowledge (research) and community engagement, recognising that there are differences in the execution of these responsibilities within the various departments and Faculties.  Academics are also expected to assume some administrative, management and/or leadership duties at the departmental, Faculty and/or University level.

The requirements

• At least an MSc in an ichthyological, fisheries science or aquaculture topic or equivalent. Preference will be given to candidates with a PhD or candidates who have made significant progress towards completing a PhD in a topic that is ichthyological, fisheries science, or aquaculture related.
• Tutoring, facilitation, or conference presentation experience required. No teaching experience is required, but teaching experience in Aquaculture, ichthyology, and biological statistics will be an advantage.
• No research supervision is required, but previous supervision experience will place the candidate at an advantage.
• Some administrative or management experience, albeit in informal contexts, e.g., student or sports clubs, work experiences, but administrative or management experience in the workplace will place the candidate at an advantage.
