Dr Scott Huntly

Scott is an experienced lecturer and personal academic coach, with extensive experience of teaching at tertiary, undergraduate and postgraduate levels. He is a passionate advocate for widening access to study and for actively supporting those who might otherwise feel marginalised or excluded from higher education.

He has previously taught as a visiting lecturer at the University of Sunderland, an assistant lecturer at the University of Essex, and a guest lecturer at Regents College, Malvern. At the University of Suffolk, he has led and designed several modules relating to his fields of interest, including contemporary political theory, ideology and populism, the history of political thought, and British government and politics, and regularly contributes to others, including applied international relations theory, social justice and policy, social science research skills, and social theory.

Scott completed his doctoral research in the Department of Government, University of Essex, as a member of the Centre for Ideology and Discourse Analysis (cIDA). His research focused on the political discourse of evangelical Christians after the election of Donald Trump in 2016. This research forms the basis of a number of forthcoming journal articles and a research monograph on the problem of Trump in evangelical discourse. His next project is a co-authored textbook on theories of ideology and populism in international relations based on the module he now teaches on the MA International Relations at the University of Suffolk.

Scott Huntly is a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy and member of the Political Studies Association.
