The School of Information (SI) seeks a faculty member at the Assistant Professor level who will establish a vigorous research and teaching program in information and communication technology for development (ICT4D), emphasizing applications relevant to environmental sustainability and developing nations. The successful candidate will have demonstrated expertise in information system design; computer-supported cooperative work; environmental informatics; communication studies; development policy, sociology, or anthropology; and/or a related field applicable to the design and study of information systems for developing-world contexts. The ideal applicant will combine a proven ability to design effective and innovative information systems with an informed, critical perspective on development issues. A portfolio that includes fieldwork (for example, an implemented ICT4D project, or a study of ICT uses in one or more nations) will receive most favorable consideration.
