Data & Society is seeking applicants for our 2022-2023 faculty fellows program. This fellowship is for scholars of any discipline who are engaged in research at the intersection of technology and society. It’s a 10-month position beginning in September of 2022 that comes with a stipend, programmatic support, and the chance to be a part of the rich intellectual community at Data & Society. As we build the 2022-2023 class, we’re continuing to embrace breadth and diversity in our selection process. Data & Society is seeking two Faculty Fellows whose research projects specifically focus on issues of Race, Technology, and the State. Continuing Data & Society’s history of work on fairness, equity, and civil rights, these faculty fellows will bring a justice-oriented perspective and intersectional approach to their interrogations of race and data. This year we are particularly interested in projects that examine data-intensive systems of the State and how they intersect with processes of racialization. Broadly, the research projects of our Faculty Fellows will advance our mission and complement our work <http://ec2-34-221-130-80.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com/x/d?c=16655456&l=5e407cb3-26e4-4ec8-9be6-2ab4cca45d49&r=5854a7fc-3551-4157-9664-5dcf27f4da62> by: - Exploring questions of race within one of our existing research initiatives such as AI On the Ground <http://ec2-34-221-130-80.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com/x/d?c=16655456&l=c2101e6f-0d32-44c1-b006-29df0f2e62cb&r=5854a7fc-3551-4157-9664-5dcf27f4da62>, Labor Futures <http://ec2-34-221-130-80.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com/x/d?c=16655456&l=0dda22cf-5f1b-4859-85fc-2b1e2b77cdd6&r=5854a7fc-3551-4157-9664-5dcf27f4da62>, and Health and Data <http://ec2-34-221-130-80.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com/x/d?c=16655456&l=4531364b-39d6-4aa0-95c8-3afa4cf4b2a7&r=5854a7fc-3551-4157-9664-5dcf27f4da62> ; - Exploring questions of race aligned especially with our cross-cutting theme: power and the algorithmic state, and two other themes: participation and agency in algorithmic accountability, and reframing society’s relationship to technology; or - Stretching Data & Society’s research in new directions with novel topics and questions.
