The Clinical Tutor will primarily contribute to undergraduate teaching while also supporting postgraduate education through supervision and mentoring as directed by the Head of School.

Nursing and midwifery students at Trinity can engage in a wide range of clinical procedures and scenarios across acute and community adult nursing, child nursing, mental health nursing, midwifery, paramedicine, and operating department practice at the Trinity Simulation Suite. By combining advanced simulation mannequins, livestreaming video debriefing, and evidence-based teaching, simulated learning provides a safe, structured space where students can develop their clinical skills under the supervision of qualified, discipline-specific clinical tutors. Student performance is supported through observation and recorded sessions for self-assessment and reflective learning.

We are seeking a full-time post-doctoral researcher to work on a major European Research Council funded project. The researcher would lead the project’s investigation into veterancy among colonized and/or Indigenous populations within the imperial polity of the United States of America. The project is based in the Arts and Humanities Institute and the History Department at University of Maynooth. This post offers the opportunities to join a dynamic research environment with state-of-the-art research facilities. The project includes funding to support extensive archival work overseas.  

Project Details

COLVET is a four-year long European Research Council Starting Grant project led by Professor Dónal Hassett. It explores how colonized peoples grappled with the legacies of military service. It will develop the first comprehensive and comparative account of colonial veterancy in what was the foundational era for modern conceptions of the veteran, the interwar period. Grounded in a collaborative and comparative methodology, the project will trace and analyse the contrasts and commonalities in the evolution and reception of veteran policy within, across, and between the French Empire, the Italian Empire, the American colonial empire, British-ruled East or Southern Africa, and British-ruled India. The project has three key strands, exploring the way veterancy was defined, demarcated and debated in colonial contexts, the systems set up to cater for and control veterans, and the political impact of veterancy on the colonial order. This innovative research will not only deepen our understanding of veteran history around the world in the period but also help us reimagine the concepts we use to analyse veterans and their stories so they can better capture the diversity of veteran experiences.
