[Air-L] Data & Society call for 2022-2023 faculty fellows

[Jenna Burrell]

Data & Society is seeking applicants for our 2022-2023 faculty fellows
program. This fellowship is for scholars of any discipline who are engaged
in research at the intersection of technology and society. It’s a 10-month
position beginning in September of 2022 that comes with a stipend,
programmatic support, and the chance to be a part of the rich intellectual
community at Data & Society.

As we build the 2022-2023 class, we’re continuing to embrace breadth and
diversity in our selection process. Data & Society is seeking two Faculty
Fellows whose research projects specifically focus on issues of Race,
Technology, and the State. Continuing Data & Society’s history of work on
fairness, equity, and civil rights, these faculty fellows will bring a
justice-oriented perspective and intersectional approach to their
interrogations of race and data. This year we are particularly interested
in projects that examine data-intensive systems of the State and how they
intersect with processes of racialization.

Broadly, the research projects of our Faculty Fellows will advance our
mission and complement our work

   Exploring questions of race aligned especially with our cross-cutting
   theme: power and the algorithmic state, and two other themes: participation
   and agency in algorithmic accountability, and reframing society’s
   relationship to technology; or
   -

   Stretching Data & Society’s research in new directions with novel topics
   and questions.
