There are still lots of open positions. Let's find the one that's right for you.
Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) has launched a major new initiative, the Carnegie Mellon Institute for Strategy and Technology (CMIST), which is devoted to the wise development, use, and governance of new and emerging technologies that are changing the national and international security landscape. As part of this forward-looking enterprise, the university seeks top tenure-line scholars in political science, international relations, and other related disciplines with established interest in emerging technologies relevant to international affairs. Scholars investigating intersections between biotechnology, artificial intelligence, and major CBNR risks are of particular interest during this hiring cycle, as are experts in international law and technology regulation. The best candidates will be doing cutting-edge social science research on emerging technologies that promises to contribute to intellectual efforts in CMIST and across CMU. We will consider scholars at all levels—from entry-level assistant professor to associate and full professor levels. This is an outstanding opportunity to become part of a new, interdisciplinary initiative that combines Carnegie Mellon's existing strengths in AI, cybersecurity, biotechnology, robotics, and other emerging technologies, with scholarship focused on national security, international relations, ethics, law, and policy. We seek intellectually agile, innovative scholars willing to work cooperatively across disciplinary boundaries to tackle the challenges of emergent technologies for war and peace.
