Job Opportunity: Lecturer in Asian Religions at the University of Bristol

The Department of Religion and Theology at the University of Bristol is inviting applications for a Lecturer in Asian Religions to cover maternity leave. This is a fixed-term position, 0.8 FTE, starting from 1 January 2025 and running through 31 December 2025.

We are particularly keen to hear from recent PhD graduates in Buddhist Studies, though applications from those nearing the completion of their PhD are also welcome. The successful candidate will primarily teach courses on Buddhism, with a focus on Indian traditions, and will contribute to teaching on Hinduism. There will also be opportunities to engage with and contribute to our Buddhist Studies activities here at Bristol, collaborating with colleagues on research, events, and initiatives.

In addition to teaching, the role includes some administrative responsibilities and broader participation in the department’s activities.
