Please let me know if you have any questions. - Reuben The Department of Political Science at Stony Brook University is participating in a University-wide interdisciplinary diversity hiring initiative, the IDEA Fellows program. The full ad and job description is below. The Department of Political Science provides a vibrant and productive research environment, including the opportunity to work with talented, well-trained PhD students. Faculty and PhD students have considerable expertise in experimental methods, survey data collection, political psychology, and behavioral economics. The Center for Behavioral Political Economy is housed in the department and contains lab space to conduct incentivized research studies. We encourage applications from candidates working in the subfields of American politics, comparative politics, political economy, public policy, political institutions, political methodology, and political communications whose interests and activities align with the IDEA Fellows program. All materials must be submitted through the Interfolio posting here: https://apply.interfolio.com/113224 Stony Brook University seeks to hire, engage, and mentor Inclusion, Diversity, Equity & Access (IDEA) Fellows who can help catalyze our campus’ commitment to inclusive solutions-driven research and scholarship at intersections of different disciplines. As a public university dedicated to addressing society’s greatest challenges through research and education, we understand a genuine commitment to supporting diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice (DEIJ) is key to academic excellence, new discoveries, and societal change. IDEA Fellows will engage in scholarship and teaching in clusters that represent key areas in Stony Brook’s current and growing strengths, bringing a commitment to advancing DEIJ through research, pedagogical advances, and service in the Colleges of Arts and Sciences (CAS), Business (CoB), and Engineering and Applied Sciences (CEAS), and the Schools of Communication and Journalism (SoCJ), and Marine and Atmospheric Sciences (SoMAS). IDEA Fellows are full-time, 12-month, non-tenure-track lecturer positions appointed at an annual salary of $80,000 with comprehensive state benefits, to commence Fall 2023. Importantly, the fellows will be part of a mentored research environment, with a modest teaching load. At the completion of this two-year position, fellows with an upward trajectory of scholarly achievement and a demonstrated contribution to inclusion, diversity, and equity will be invited to join the tenure-track faculty at Stony Brook University through an internal promotion process. Each successful candidate’s primary appointment will be in a department that supports one of the broad areas outlined below. Both the candidate’s interest and the recruitment and selection process will drive decisions about College/School and departmental affiliation. Candidates must have demonstrated plans to contribute to DEIJ; excellence in innovative research and scholarship; and the potential to contribute to the teaching mission of the academic unit they join. The successful candidate will be expected to be an effective interdisciplinary teacher, a mentor at the undergraduate and graduate levels to guide research and professional development, and an active participant in community outreach activities. During their two-year appointment, the fellows will meet together with university mentors for discussion and support as their research progresses. Discussions will center on paths to academic excellence and success, the experience of diversity and inclusion, ways to overcome barriers, and factors that facilitate belonging and engagement. Stony Brook prides itself on attracting a remarkably diverse student body, including many first-generation immigrants and first-generation college students. Recent studies have shown that Stony Brook is one of the top universities in the U.S. for enabling the upward mobility of its students. We aim to grow our faculty in ways that mirror our student body and enhance our commitment to social mobility. We strive to support a faculty complement that connects with and understands the needs, interests, and backgrounds of its student body, in part to maximize the effectiveness of our mentoring. We are interested in scholars who evidence a commitment to inclusive excellence. These individuals will bring a critical perspective based on experience in or understanding of groups historically underrepresented in higher education that includes a focus on one or more of the five key areas as outlined below. Applications will be accepted until 11:59 p.m. (EDT) Oct 17, 2022. This listing is for the topic area "Sustainable climate justice and solutions," described below. Links to the applications for other topic areas are at the bottom of this description. Please apply for only one topic area. Multiple fellows will be hired, hence this list reflects a broad swath of interest for a pool of fellows, with more than one hire expected in some areas. Candidates whose interests cut across several topical areas, offer critical and creative approaches, and have the potential for successful interdisciplinary DEIJ-related scholarship are particularly encouraged to apply. Sustainable Climate Justice and Solutions This topic area focuses on mitigation of climate change including environmental/climate and economic inequities, climate refugees, loss of biodiversity, renewable energy and manufacturing, energy storage, use of natural resources, water use and reuse, inequity in environmental and social aspects of climate solutions, food security, design for sustainability and longevity, financing of greenhouse gas emissions mitigation, and the politics of climate-related systemic, and/or individual behavior change.
