Media and Technologies Studies in the Faculty of Arts at the University of Alberta is seeking applications from scholars who would be eligible to be nominated for a CIFAR Chair in Artificial Intelligence and Indigeneity. The successful candidate will assume a tenured position at the rank of Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor.

The ideal candidate will lead an innovative program of research that develops areas including but not limited to:

● Indigenous epistemologies
● digital humanities
● software studies
● emergent media theories

With special emphasis on how these areas intersect with decolonization, artificial intelligence
understood broadly, and Indigenous research and knowledge.

The Faculty of Arts encourages First Nations, Métis, and Inuit scholars to apply, along with
Indigenous scholars from any geographical region. Applicants should self-identify and are
encouraged to demonstrate Indigenous community connections. Both Canadian and international scholars will be considered, and they must hold a terminal degree (PhD or MFA/MDes).
