Dear list,
we are currently recruiting an hourly paid lecturer for an
undergraduate module to be taught in the Summer Term of 2018-19 within
the York Music Psychology Group, University of York. Please find
details of the course to be taught below. Could you please forward
this email to interested colleagues and graduates?
We would require from our candidate a completed PhD in Music
Psychology or a related discipline (or to be close to PhD completion)
and some previous teaching experience. Interested candidates should
send an email to hauke.egermann@york.ac.uk and attach a short CV and
any possible references for teaching (or give names of possible
referees). We will start considering applicants from 24 July 2018
onwards. Payments will be made according to the comprehensive lecturer
rates and there will be an opportunity to continue teaching in our
department for several subsequent years at undergraduate level.
Module title:
Introduction to the Psychology of Music
Module content:
Music Psychology aims to explain and understand musical behaviour and
experience, including the processes through which music is created,
perceived, responded to, and incorporated into everyday life (Tan,
Pfordrescher, Harré, 2010). Accordingly, this module will introduce
students to the basic mechanisms underlying these human capacities. We
will start with engaging in the functionality of the auditory system
and from there, elaborate on the perception and cognition of musical
elements, such as melody, rhythm, harmony, timbre or higher level
structures like compositional form or expressiveness. Subsequently, we
focus on basic principles underlying listener experience (aesthetics,
emotion, and preferences). Finally, the module will provide a
introduction to the mechanisms that underlie musical performance
skills, like sensorimotor learning, training, and musical talent.
During the course of this module, students will be also introduced to
basic principles of social science research methods including the
design of experimental studies, statistics, and data analyses.
Further details on the module can be found here:

Dates of the summer term in York are 15 April 2019 till 21 June 2019,
but it is not expected that applicants are present in York during the
whole term.

Hauke
