Dear ARNOVA DAS Committee Colleagues,
I write with exciting news that I hope you will share far and wide.
The John Glenn College of Public Affairs at The Ohio State University is hiring for an Open Rank Tenure-Track Faculty Position in Artificial Intelligence, Data, and Public Governance. We are seeking a scholar and teacher whose interdisciplinary work explores how existing and emerging information technologies can serve or undermine the public interest, and whether or how they should be governed. This position focuses on the use of data in management and policy making, as well as the governance of data and data use. Both public and private sector organizations increasingly use data, data science, AI, and other emerging technologies to inform their operations and decisions. This development can enable greater access, agility, responsiveness, and insight. But it also poses threats to privacy, fairness, equity, and accountability and can give rise to unintended consequences. Realizing the benefits, and addressing the threats, requires rethinking governance, management, law, and policy. This faculty member, working at the frontier of public interest technology and science/technology policy, will join the Translational Data Analytics Institute (TDAI) and will enhance the Ohio State University’s major investments in information technology, digital trust and cybersecurity, AI/machine learning, and data governance. The position begins Fall, 2023.
More information on the position including instructions for how to apply can be found at OSU’s portal. Questions may be addressed to the search chair, David Landsbergen, at Glenn...@osu.edu. Also feel free to reach out to me at lepere-s...@osu.edu.
Best,
Megan
