BHA: Social Science Research Methods post

[Mervyn Hartwig <mh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Colin Wight, formerly of this list, writes:

The Department of International Politics, Aberystwyth University, Wales,
UK is looking to appoint someone to teach Social Science Research
Methods. Obviously we would like someone who did this in the context of
International Politics, but Pol Science, Economics or Sociology would be
fine. We are just about the top Department in the UK (rated 5* 2001 RAE)
with generous sabbatical policy (one semester in 4) and the post is
permanent. The person appointed would be expected to teach the whole
range (research design, quantitative methods, qualitative methods) of
research methods on the Universities Research Training Programme as well
as contribute to Departmental modules; and there would be an opportunity
to run modules of their own. Some knowledge of the Philosophy of Social
Science would be useful, but in general I teach that. They do need to be
a high quality researcher in their own right however. The ad will be in
next Tuesdays Guardian and we actually have two posts.

(I expect the 'cow' is that Hegelian cow in the night again.)
