However, all areas of expertise in Plant Sciences will be considered. Applicants must be research active, demonstrating evidence of peer-reviewed publications, and the potential to establish or further develop a research programme attracting external funding with collaborative links nationally and internationally. In addition experience of innovative e-learning methods that could be applied within the School would be beneficial.

BEES also has strong links to the University’s Environmental Research Institute (ERI) (eri.ucc.ie) and industry. We offer a number of highly regarded taught undergraduate and postgraduate degree programmes, including a BSc in Applied Plant Biology, as well as contributing to inter-disciplinary degree programmes in the University.
Please note that Garda vetting and/or an international police clearance check may form part of the selection process.
