Job description
The post holder will act as Module Lead for the Evidence Informed Practice of Medicine strand of the curriculum across years 3 and 4 of the MBBS course. This theme incorporates psychology, sociology and public health, which will be applied in a clinical context. EIPOM also includes the Student Selected Components which are longitudinal projects in audit and quality assurance.

The successful post holder will have experience of assessment within medical education and of teaching undergraduate medical students.
