Teaching Fellow (Medicine)
Undergraduate
Medical Education requires committed and interested staff to enable students to
make the most of the teaching opportunities available. We have 6 posts for teachers to join
the team. These posts will be to work with either the University of Sunderland or
the Newcastle University teaching teams.
The roles will
involve teaching alongside the current designated specialty teams while taking
a lead in some of the more complex planning and delivery of key concepts of
education. The successful candidates will have the opportunity to study for the
PG Certificate in Medical Education with designated study time.
This post
offers the opportunity to gain broad experience within the undergraduate
teaching team. There are no existing designated clinical sessions as the post

We are available to meet prospective applicants and give them the opportunity to visit the hospital and meet colleagues with whom they will be working. We find this helps candidates to gain a greater understanding of the department and the post and also to find out if they would be happy joining our team.
