The profile of applicants for junior lecturer reports: age
The age at which junior lecturers obtain a favourable report is being monitored by AQU Catalunya. A study entitled University academic staff in Catalonia: figures on accreditation and recruitment policies (2003-2006), was published in 2008, in which the average age of junior lecturers was 36, although there were differences according to subject area. The youngest age (34) was in Experimental Sciences, whereas the oldest (39) was in the Humanities. Esteve Arboix Codina - Head of Teaching Staff Assessment department
