    Default job background
    Description

    The School of Interactive Arts & Technology (SIAT) at Simon Fraser University (SFU) invites applications for a Tier 2 Canada Research Chair (CRC) in Technological Change for Inclusion. This tenure-track position is intended for applicants with an exceptional research record at the Assistant or Associate Professor level. The anticipated start date of this position is Spring 2023. As a technology research-focused school that occupies the traditional territories of the Squamish (Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Úxwumixw), Musqueam (xwməθkwəy̓əm), Tsleil-Waututh (səlil ̓ w̓ ətaʔɬ), Katzie, and Kwikwetlem (kwikwəƛ̓əm) peoples, SIAT aspires to create a space for reconciliation through dialogue and decolonizing practices. With these aspirations in mind, we invite applicants whose research aims to create opportunities that foster inclusion, justice, equality, equity, and wellbeing through critical uses of emerging technologies.

    While technological advances aim to improve our quality of life, they often perpetuate and reproduce longstanding structural and systemic social injustices and inequalities. SIAT acknowledges the urgency for critical research in issues such as systemic racism, social inequity, and decoloniality that advocate for inclusion and justice in technology, and we acknowledge our challenges in meeting these needs. The successful applicant will join us in advancing technological change for inclusion, especially in an area for change that we see as a priority in SIAT. This includes critical algorithm studies and algorithmic bias , intersectional and decolonial approaches to technology , and climate justice or labour at the intersection of technological innovation . We are also open to other related programs of research that address the goals of technological change for inclusion.

    ABOUT THE SCHOOL OF INTERACTIVE ARTS & TECHNOLOGY

    SIAT is a diverse group of anthropologists, artists, cognitive scientists, computer scientists, dancers, designers, historians, and neuroscientists who value innovative and collaborative approaches to teaching, research, creation, and knowledge production. We are a collective of research, teaching, art, and literary award winners, internationally exhibited artists, keynote speakers, and recognized fellows in art, science, technology, and teaching societies and associations.

    We work together in experimenting with knowledge creation through our collaborative acts of production, research, and practice. We commit to fostering a diverse, equitable, and inclusive community where all feel welcome, safe, accepted, and appreciated in learning, teaching, research, and work.

    THE SUCCESSFUL APPLICANT

    Tier 2 Canada Research Chair positions are intended for emerging scholars who have completed their highest degree less than ten years ago; applicants who are more than ten years from their highest degree that have experienced career breaks, such as maternity or parental leave, extended sick leave, clinical training, and family care, may have their eligibility assessed through the program's Tier 2 justification process. If you have questions related to your eligibility for the position, please contact the committee chair (Dr. Thecla Schiphorst ; cc: ).

    Tier 2 CRCs are tenable for five years and may be renewed once. In addition to national and international recognition, the position offers salary top-ups, teaching releases, and additional research funding. The successful candidate must hold a PhD by the employment start date; however, PhD candidates with solid indication of imminent completion may be hired at the rank of Instructor and will be promoted to the rank of Assistant Professor upon completion of the PhD.

    The successful candidate will be asked to:

    • Mobilize, lead and sustain an impactful research program or creative-practice that contributes nationally and internationally, obtain successful and significant research and/or production funding to support collaborative research and post-doctoral fellows and graduate students
    • Teach courses at the graduate and undergraduate levels. Support and foster innovative approaches to learning and curriculum development, including the integration of equity, diversity, and inclusion within the curriculum
    • Join colleagues in service to the school, faculty, and university governance, and community building

    SFU recognizes that alternative career paths and/or career interruptions (e.g., maternity leave, leave due to illness) can impact research achievements and commits to ensuring that leaves are taken into careful consideration. Candidates are encouraged to highlight how alternative paths and/or interruptions have impacted them in their application. SFU also recognizes the value of mentoring and research training, outreach, professional service, and nontraditional areas of research/practice and/or research outputs; demonstrated experience in promoting and increasing diversity and inclusion in the previous institutional environment and in the curriculum is also an asset.

    APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

    To apply, a focused application package should include the following:

    • a letter of intent stating how the candidate's research and theoretical, technical, and/or artistic practice contributes to the position as described and also contributes to the School of Interactive Arts and Technology.
    • a recent curriculum vitae and, if applicable, portfolio
    • description of their research and its contributions, a description of their teaching philosophy and experience
    • three examples of scholarly work (e.g., publications, exhibitions, artifacts, media, documentation of community-based work)
    • a statement of your position and contribution to equity, diversity, and inclusion.
    • four – six academic referees with contact information including addresses (including email), institutional affiliation, and telephone numbers. Letters will be requested for shortlisted candidates.
