Position Description
Advertised Job Summary
The College of Information and Communications at the University of South Carolina is seeking applicants for several faculty positions in artificial intelligence to bolster its commitment to advance education, scholarship and programmatic efforts related to emerging information technologies. These new hires will be housed within the College’s two renown units – School of Journalism and Mass Communications, and School of Information Science (iSchool).
The explosive growth of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming the way we communicate with audiences, consumers, publics, and other key stakeholders. Recognizing the transformative potential of AI to society and the significant impact on the practice of communication, the School of Journalism and Mass Communications at the University of South Carolina is seeking applicants for a full-time position as instructor focused on AI in communication to begin January 1, 2025 or August 16, 2025.
The area of AI has been identified as a high-impact, strategically relevant domain with significant potential to enhance the national and international reputation of the School and College. The ideal candidate will have considerable industry experience around the application of digital technologies, particularly AI, in mass communication contexts—strategy, analysis, and/or content production. The individual should be able to lead workshops, trainings, and lead applied projects and/or research or creative scholarship in the AI arena.
The School of Journalism and Mass Communications
The School of Journalism and Mass Communications currently enrolls approximately 1,700 undergraduates and 100 graduate students in journalism, advertising, public relations, visual communications, sports media and mass communications. The SJMC offers bachelor’s and master’s degrees in journalism and mass communication and a Ph.D. in mass communication. The faculty consists of a collegial group of researchers and educators with a wide range of backgrounds and interests. The school houses two professional video studios, a photography studio, and five Mac labs. We extensively use Adobe Premiere Pro and Photoshop in our classes. As part of our program, every student has a subscription to Adobe Creative Suite.
College of Information and Communications
The College of Information and Communications is home to two nationally recognized schools, the School of Journalism and Mass Communications and the School of Information Science. The college provides outstanding teaching, research, and community outreach. As such, USC is one of only a few universities to combine its communications and information science programs, two rapidly evolving — and converging — fields united by a shared belief that information accessibility is the cornerstone of self-governance. The College has approximately 1,800 undergraduates, 500 graduate students, and more than 100 faculty and staff members. New assets available to faculty and students in both schools include The Social Media Insights Lab and the Biometric and User Experience Lab. Both are designed to facilitate the study of issues related to data, media, and their impact on society.
The University of South Carolina
The University of South Carolina in Columbia is the major research institution of the University of South Carolina system and its largest campus, enrolling approximately 35,000 students. The university offers over 320 degrees at the bachelor’s, master’s, doctoral and professional program levels. Founded in 1801, it is among America’s oldest and most comprehensive public universities and is one of only 32 public universities to earn the Carnegie Foundation’s top-tier designations in both research activity and community engagement. South Carolina’s capital city is currently undergoing several urban revitalization projects and offers residents a growing range of artistic, cultural, and recreational opportunities.
Required Education and Experience
Master’s degree in an information/communications-related field by the start date of employment.
Ability to contribute to the School’s curriculum development in AI topics.

Preferred Qualifications
Master’s degree in an information/communications-related field by the start date of employment.
