[ecrea] CMCS Hiring Research Director, Offering Pre- and Post-Docs

Center for Media and Communication Studies, SPP, CEU


There are several new opportunities at CMCS I'd like to draw your 
attention to.  We are hiring a Director of Research, are offering a new 
series of pre- and post-doc awards, and have expanded the list of ways 
to have senior researchers come to Budapest for short periods of time.
Director of Research

We are looking for someone to take the lead on managing our existing 
portfolio of research grants, help us find new sources of support, and 
direct our research dissemination strategy.  The ideal candidate has a 
PhD in a related social or information science, experience managing 
research, and a shared research agenda with the CMCS team.  See our 
advertisement on the Chronicle of Higher Education website for more 
details. We will start reviewing applications on September 1, and the 
expected start date is October 1, 2014.



Pre- and Post-Docs

We are eager to support some pre- and post-doctoral researchers working 
in several related areas:

    * civil society and the internet of things;
    * bot attacks on NGOs and political actors;
    * humanitarian use of drones;
    * Hungarian media networks.

Please visit our website for more details.  These can be for 1-3 months' 
residence in Budapest and there can be flexibility with start and end 
dates.



Visiting Faculty Researchers

We have gathered information on several different kinds of opportunities 
to come to CMCS as visiting faculty and researchers.  The Erasmus, 
Fulbright, Marie Curie and Institute for Advanced Study programs--as 
they relate to CMCS--are detailed on the "Opportunities" page of our 
website.  This fall we will be welcoming Dr. Shawn Powers and Dr. Amelia 
Arsenault to the Center as faculty visitors.

Please look these over and think about how they might fit your interests 
or those of someone you know.  And please do forward this note to 
candidates and colleagues you think might also be interested.

Sincerely,

Phil Howard
Director, Center for Media and Communication Studies
