[ecrea] Professor and Director, Centre for Cultural Research (CCR), University of Western Sydney
Thu Jul 30 11:57:18 GMT 2009
Professor and Director, Centre for Cultural Research (CCR),
University of Western Sydney
The Centre for Cultural Research at UWS conducts interdisciplinary
and collaborative research that addresses the cultural challenges
and contradictions of an increasingly globalised, heterogeneous and
technologically mediated world. The Centre is committed to forging
partnerships for cultural research and development with a broad
range of organisations and communities in Western Sydney, as well as
nationally and internationally. Research at the Centre is organised
around an integrative research program and four interrelated
thematic research programs. The integrative program is titled
Knowledge Practices: Theory, Method, Engagement. The thematic
programs are: Intercultural Dialogue; Institutions, Governance,
Conduct; Economy, Labour, Globalisation; and Culture, Nature,
Environments. Further information about the Centre's research agenda
can be obtained by writing to the CCR Executive Officer, Maree
O'Neill, at (m.oneill /at/ uws.edu.au).
The Professor will be a highly productive researcher of
international standing who will take on a leadership role in the
development of the Centre's research profile, performance and
reputation through competitive grant applications, publications and
attraction of research students to the Centre. Applicants will be
expected to have a distinguished career in the broad field of
cultural research with a demonstrated ability to work across
different approaches and subfields. The appointee will lead the
Centre's integrative program and should have a developed track
record in methodologically innovative research that tests conceptual
boundaries and confronts the challenges of interdisciplinarity.
The appointment to the position of Director is, initially, for a
period of 5 years and reports to Executive Dean of the College. The
successful applicant will also have a substantive, ongoing position
as Professor.
