Technology Studies, tenure-track
The Communication, Culture & Technology (CCT) M.A. program at
Georgetown University focuses on the relationship between new
computational technologies of communication and areas such as science,
scholarship, culture, government, media, business, journalism, and the
arts. The program is developing a new lab, which will be a hub of
technology knowledge, discovery and research, connecting CCT and
Georgetown to the larger world of practice and innovation in all
sectors where technology is central. In particular, the lab will
provide a means for CCT to create partnerships with leading private
sector information organizations developing innovations in digital
media, knowledge management, and Internet applications; to remain at
the forefront of research by creating relationships with initiatives
in the Digital Humanities and the Information Schools; and push
forward the boundaries of knowledge through external support by
agencies and foundations such as NSF and Mellon.
The program seeks to appoint a tenure-track Assistant Professor with a
strong interdisciplinary expertise in approaches to the study of
technology, including history, theory, and current methodologies. The
appointee will direct the new CCT lab, which will include growing the
lab, forming external relations, and pushing toward more cutting-edge,
experimental new media technology. Applicants must be proficient in
teaching the technical aspects of how technologies work and how such
technologies are employed in communication-related fields. The
appointee will be expected to help develop and execute a new
Fundamentals of Technology course, a core course in the CCT
curriculum, with a focus on the practicum component, and to have
scholarly publications and teaching experience at the graduate level
(or comparable), and be prepared to advise and to mentor M.A. thesis
projects.
