Job description |
Job Summary Harvard’s Embedded EthiCS program is an innovative distributed pedagogy: a team of philosophers collaborates with computer scientists to develop and teach ethics modules for courses across the Computer Science curriculum. In each course, the ethics module is tailored to address moral issues that are specifically germane to the technical concepts in the course. Module guides are published in an open-access online Repository to nurture the growing community of universities that are adopting the Embedded EthiCS approach. Position Description The role involves two high-level responsibilities: providing strategic leadership to the Embedded EthiCS program, and directly teaching courses in engaged ethics. In more detail, the Program Director aspect of the job involves oversight of the Embedded EthiCS program, shaping the development and assessment of pedagogy, the expansion of the Embedded EthiCS model to other universities, and the building of partnerships with industry. The Lecturer aspect of the job involves the hands-on teaching of 1-2 classes (pending curricular needs) in Harvard College. Responsibilities include: Program Oversight
