Module Co-Convenor & Lecturer for Medicine Foundation Year
University of Leicester
Leicester Medical School has an exciting opportunity for a fully qualified General Practitioner to support our Foundation programme lead, working with a multidisciplinary team comprising clinicians, bioscientists, psychologists and social scientists who contribute to teaching on the 6 year ‘Medicine with Foundation Year’ (A199) programme.
This postholder will provide key support and leadership to the delivery of the teaching programme for our novel, and highly successful Foundation programme. As co-lead you will support the programme lead in managing the delivery of the programme and supporting students on the course. You will also have lead responsibility for the clinical module delivered throughout the Foundation year: ‘Medicine: The Patient’. There will also be an opportunity to contribute to the ongoing research/evaluation programmes related to the course delivery.
This Foundation Year course has a remit to be clinically orientated, to select students who are empathic and compassionate towards patients, but also to develop those skills further. It is for those reasons this lead is anticipated to have a medical background. Candidates for this post must therefore be undertaking regular clinical work in a GP practice, in addition to this role in the Leicester Medical School.
