The University of Vermont is seeking an Assistant Professor of Digital Anthropology.  Scholars with a linguistic anthropology background whose work is in digital anthropology, broadly conceived, are invited to apply.

We seek a digital anthropologist whose research and teaching focus on cultural dimensions of online social and knowledge networks; artificial intelligence; blended algorithms; the metaverse; computational anthropology; techno-anthropology; computer-mediated communication; and/or “big data” (ethnographic methods and ethics of data mining, “thick” data, and big data analytics). All geographic specialties will be considered.
The successful candidate will be invited to contribute to an ongoing NSF-funded interdisciplinary project called the Science of Online Corpora, Knowledge, and Stories, which deploys high-performance computing tools and environments to engage in research at the intersection of computer science, the social sciences, and the humanities (https://www.uvm.edu/socks/), as well as a planned graduate program in Computational Studies of Culture and Society.
