Teaching Staff Applications are invited for the appointment as Part-time Lecturer in Population and Policy Analysis in the Faculty of Social Sciences (Ref. 537229) , to commence in December 2026 or as soon as possible on temporary term, with the possibility of renewal subject to funding availability and satisfactory performance. Applicants should possess a Master's degree in Public Policy, Public Administration, or a related field. They should demonstrate a strong record of either professional practice in policy design and evaluation within institutional settings (e.g., government, NGOs, or consultancy firms), and/or prior teaching experience of similar applied policy courses. Familiarity with drafting policy proposals, agenda-setting, consultations, conducting stakeholder analyses, and applying practical evaluation frameworks (such as logic models or cost-benefit reasoning) is highly desirable. Knowledge of the policy environment in Greater China or East Asia is an advantage. A background in demography, population studies, or quantitative/statistical modelling is not a must. The appointee will teach the course "Applied Policy Design and Strategy," a generalist elective course offered by the Master of Social Sciences in the field of Population and Policy Analysis programme. He/She will be responsible for developing course materials, and delivering lectures and tutorials throughout a standard 12-week semester. The appointee will be supported by a Teaching Assistant, who will assist with course-related administrative duties and grading tasks. A highly competitive salary commensurate with qualifications and experience will be offered. The University only accepts online applications for the above post. Applicants should apply online and upload (1) an up-to-date C.V.; (2) a cover letter; (3) a one-page teaching statement, (4) the contact information of three senior referees familiar with the applicant's academic and professional background; and (5) a teaching portfolio (less than 50MB). Review of applications will start as soon as possible and continue until September 30, 2026 , or until the post is filled, whichever is earlier.
