Come work with danah boyd & I at Data & Society. One project is on privacy & the other on connected learning. NYC-based only! http://www.datasociety.net/blog/jobs/research-analysts-reframing-privacy-ena... We are seeking either one full-time research analyst (40+ hours/week) or two part-time (20+ hours/week) research analysts to help drive research components of two Data & Society projects. Start date is negotiable (by September 15 strongly preferred), and the appointment is for one year (with renewal possibilities). Applicants should have a Master’s or PhD in a social science or related field or significant experience doing similar types of research. This position is ideal for a researcher seeking to strengthen their research skills. Current New York City-based PhD students will be considered so long as they have flexibility in their schedules; students currently enrolled in coursework typically do not. Postdocs will be considered, but postdoctoral candidates should be attentive to how working in an interdisciplinary research institute may not be received well by traditional academic departments. PhDs seeking to work outside of the academy, in think tanks, or across disciplines may find this position quite satisfying. This is a fully funded position with benefits and vacation; starting salary is dependent on experience (full-time range: $45,000-$60,000). The appointment requires residency in New York. Travel may be necessary, both for conducting the research and for disseminating findings. The work will involve coding and analyzing interview transcripts, conducting focus groups and qualitative interviews, doing literature reviews, and managing tasks to assure completion of the research agenda. The work might also involve survey design, depending on experience. The research analyst would work as a part of our research team, collaborating with danah boyd, Alice Marwick, and Monica Bulger, as well as other Data & Society researchers. Core findings from the work will be published through white papers, public-facing venues, and scholarly venues; the research analyst can expect to be a co-author on at least one paper. ---- See the full call for more deets & where to send questions. D&S is great and these projects are both pretty awesome. -- Alice E.
