About the Opportunity

and its nine tenure units are the home of the Experiential Liberal Arts. Through its research, teaching, and engagement missions, the college collaborates across the university, the Northeastern network, and partners around the globe. We are strongly committed to fostering excellence through diversity and enthusiastically welcome nominations and applications from members of groups underrepresented in academia. Successful faculty in the College of Social Sciences and Humanities will be dynamic and innovative scholars with a record of research and teaching excellence and a commitment to improved equity, diversity, and inclusion. Strong candidates for this position will have the expertise, knowledge, and skills to build their research, pedagogy, and curriculum in ways that reflect and enhance this commitment.

Northeastern University’s College of Social Sciences and Humanities seeks to fill open-rank faculty positions at the tenure-track Assistant or Tenured Associate or Full Professor levels at the intersection of Democracy and Technology, with a focus on democratic practice, resilience, and participation, including at the grassroots level. One of the positions will be a joint appointment with the Khoury College of Computer Sciences. The successful candidate for this position will have expertise or knowledge of data-driven computational systems. Additional positions will be in democracy and technology policy, politics, and governance broadly construed. Academic rank at the Associate Professor and Full Professor levels will be commensurate with experience and qualifications reflecting a record of demonstrated teaching and scholarly excellence. 

Democratic systems – indeed, the very notion of democratic self-governance – face considerable challenges, many of them exacerbated and accelerated by technologies, including but not limited to information technologies, surveillance technologies, and AI. Individually, and in combination, such technologies in some cases have bolstered authoritarian regimes while leaving democratic political institutions and processes struggling to adapt. However, in other contexts they are essential contributors to democratic organization, participation, and institutional effectiveness. Successful candidates will both understand these challenges and think about paths forward in enabling democratic participation, governance, and efficacy.

We welcome applicants from political science, public policy, international affairs, computational social science, digital humanities, or related fields. Successful candidates will have demonstrated expertise in the intersection of technology and democracy, a robust research agenda, significant experience or commitment to teaching and a dedication to education innovation, and the desire and capacity to support the interdisciplinary mission of the college, university, and the experiential liberal arts. Candidates should have a demonstrated commitment to fostering diverse and inclusive environments.
