Professor of Digital Technology in Culture and Society

The post holder will deliver world-leading research, research-informed teaching, and research mentoring and supervision. Applicants will be able to demonstrate an international profile with an excellent publication record and a track record of achieving grant funding. The post holder will build and expand upon the Department's research, extending into new directions and significant emergent areas. They will be expected to provide inspiring and innovative teaching and research that explores the social, cultural and intellectual role of computing within contemporary society, in ways that expand and enrich the digital humanities as more conventionally understood. They will teach across the Department's existing range of options and create new modules of broad interest at both BA and MA level. Applications from all areas of the digital humanities and culture will be considered but we particularly welcome applications from candidates whose research provokes new thinking and crosses disciplinary and domain boundaries. The post holder will join a vibrant and energetic research community in which the Faculty is investing heavily.
