Join the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine as a teacher in Anatomy and Physiology. You will teach in our innovative Bachelor's and Master's programmes, participate educational projects, and contribute to research in animal-free innovations. We are looking for a passionate veterinarian or biomedical scientist with a strong affinity for anatomy and physiology, excellent communication skills, and a drive for collaboration. Apply now and inspire the next generation of veterinary professionals!
Your job As teacher, you will hold an independent position in the Divison of Anatomy and Physiology (A&P) of the
Faculty of Veterinary Medicine. Teaching anatomy and physiology is part of nearly all organ system and theme-based teaching blocks in the Bachelor's programme in Veterinary Medicine. In the Master's programme, the department is responsible for in-depth practicals. Additionally, teachers in Anatomy & Physiology contribute to education at University College Utrecht, the Faculty of Biomedical Sciences, the Faculty of Geosciences, and in the new Bachelor's programme in Care, Health, and Society.
Your role will be diverse, encompassing a variety of teaching, development, and research responsibilities, including:
- teaching lectures, tutorials, and practicals on anatomy and physiology in the Veterinary Medicine Bachelor's and Master's programmes;
- participating in innovative educational projects on, for example, blended learning and virtual reality;
- supervising simulations, self-study activities, and practical assignments;
- preparing and marking exams;
- evaluating parts of the curriculum and implementing improvements;
- participating in small-scale workgroup teaching;
- creating teaching materials and potentially contributing to educational research projects using innovative technology and approaches;
- developing your research project aligned with the strategic plans of A&P and the faculty. We will make sure to organise the combination of education and research in the best possible way.
Additionally, you will have the opportunity to use plastinated material for your teaching from a collection of over 3,000 items, but you will also have the opportunity to work with innovative teaching technologies such as virtual reality. You will also be involved in education for professionals, along with your colleagues from the
Department of Clinical Sciences.
