Permanent Sustainability Research Fellow opportunityThe Global Sustainability Institute (Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge, UK) is looking to recruit a new permanent Research Fellow, who will bring a strong portfolio of research to complement the existing work of our collaborative and interdisciplinary institute.

The backgrounds of our academic staff are diverse and encompass economics, geography, international relations, psychology, sociology, science and technology studies, environmental social science, climate change, mathematics and computer modelling.The closing date is 10 September 2017. Interviews will take place on 4 October 2017. Informal enquiries before application are welcome.
