[Commlist] Job: Assistant Professor, Strategic Communication, Social Media & Society - Communication and Digital Media Studies, Ontario Tech University

https://ontariotechu.csod.com/ux/ats/careersite/4/home/requisition/505?c=ontariotechu

The Communication and Digital Media Studies (CDMS) program in the 
Faculty of Social Science and Humanities (FSSH) at Ontario Tech 
University (OTU) invites applications for an Assistant Professor in the 
area of Strategic Communication, Social Media & Society.
The FSSH believes that an interdisciplinary approach to research, 
teaching, and community outreach is essential to developing the leaders 
of tomorrow, and embraces a social justice mandate. The CDMS program 
focuses on the fast-changing communication and digital media environment 
in which we live, work, play, vote and influence. From a look at the 
global creative and entertainment industries to immersion in new 
technological developments surrounding the Internet and social media 
platforms, our program’s curriculum explores the drivers and impacts of 
communication and digital media in relation to the dynamics of the 
broader society and culture that shape them. Students learn about the 
uses, roles, goals, arts, industries, audiences, policies, technologies, 
practices, messages, and effects of communication and digital media in 
relation to the pursuit of a good life for all.

We seek applications from outstanding candidates who are committed to 
building and making contributions to the CDMS program’s teaching, 
research and service excellence. In particular, we seek applicants who 
are prepared to support our Strategic Communication, Social Media & 
Society degree specialization, and one or more of our minor program 
areas in Social Media Advocacy and Activism, Digital Media Politics & 
Policy, and Professional Communication/Public Relations. As the FSSH 
values interdisciplinarity, and as related to OTU’s commitment to tech 
with a conscience, we welcome applicants that possess additional 
expertise in related sub-fields such as the sociology of technology, 
science, technology & society (STS), the political economy of the 
Internet, as well as social media advocacy experience.
