Lectureships at GSU are non-tenure-track faculty positions, which are indefinitely renewable and can lead to promotion to Senior Lecturer and Principal Lecturer, based on excellence in teaching and appropriate service. Typical teaching load is 4/4.

Roughly half the teaching will be a new interdisciplinary undergraduate course, “Ethics of Computing,” which would help to support a new Bachelors of Information Technology program in Computer Science. Other courses will depend on the teaching expertise of the hire and departmental and university needs.

The Department has been very successful at retaining Lecturers and promoting them to higher ranks. Lecturers are voting members of the Department, and the University fully supports their professional development. Starting salary is expected to be $60,000 per year, depending on experience, with the possibility for additional compensation for summer teaching (10% per course). Position will remain open until filled.

Required Qualification: PhD in philosophy at the time of appointment

Preferred Qualifications:

• Ability to teach Ethics of Computing to both philosophy and non-philosophy students
• Ability to teach in a variety of modalities
• Interest in, and preparation for, effectively teaching GSU’s student body.
• Background in computing, data science, or other relevant fields
• Demonstrated ability to effectively teach Ethics of Computing, Ethics of Data Science, and/or AI Ethics.

Distinguished Professorship in Artificial Intelligence

The College and Graduate School of Arts & Sciences at the University of Virginia seeks an eminent scholar whose research and teaching center the development, use and implications of Artificial Intelligence, or whose work meaningfully engages AI technologies such as large language models. Disciplinary affiliation is open, and the successful candidate will be appointed in the relevant department of Arts & Sciences. We are particularly interested in scholars working in the following areas: 

AI and Climate – the development and application of AI to the study of Earth's climate, including climate modeling and prediction; water scarcity and/or extreme weather forecasting; and impacts on ecosystems, agriculture, and food security.

AI and Computational Humanities – critical engagement with large language models and computational methods to address humanistic concerns such as aesthetics, identity, ethics, and justice; explore the impacts of AI on art, history, literature, and culture, including machine translation in archival and literary studies; and contribute to UVA's institutional strengths in the digital humanities (DH). 

AI, Mind and Language – the role and nature of human language in generative AI, from training data to conversational interfaces; the relationship of AI to the mind, including how AI informs our understanding of creativity, intelligence, and language and how it can be used to study human cognition; the instrumentalization of human language and the impacts of AI on linguistic communities, including linguistic diversity and low-resource languages in a global context; computational cognitive science; and issues of AI access, disability, and inclusion.

AI and Ethics - the role of AI in ethical decision-making, including general AI models of moral inquiry and reasoning and applied questions about the use of AI in highly sensitive ethical contexts such as medicine and warfare; and the broader ethical impacts of AI on human society, including algorithmic bias, the future of work, and the impact of AI on youth.

Faculty selected for each Professorship must meet the University’s minimum criteria for an eminent scholar professorship. In addition, the University will attempt to identify candidates who meet the following criteria desired by the Jefferson Scholars Foundation and its benefactors:

• National and international recognition as scholar and leader;
• Demonstrated excellence as a teacher;
• Strong commitment to interdisciplinary collaborations; and
• Willingness to participate actively in the JSF community.
