What makes Goldsmiths unique?
Goldsmiths, University of London is a world-leading centre of educational excellence where ground-breaking research meets innovative teaching and thinking. We're looking for inspiring and talented people to help build on our global reputation while also growing personally in a true learning organisation.
About the Department
The Media, Communications and Cultural Studies department at Goldsmiths is one of the UK's leaders in the field of media theory and media practice. Goldsmiths is a lively and challenging place to study Media and Communications. We attract students from a wide range of backgrounds from mature students, international students, students from the south east of London and from all over Britain. We welcome the input, which each individual makes to the experience of learning within the department and the wider College. The department has a strong interdisciplinary theoretical team, along with a strong commitment to media practice and research equivalent activity. Within this environment, students are encouraged to engage critically with the different approaches to the media in a variety of academic and practice disciplines; to develop skills in research and presentation and to explore creative possibilities across a range of practice media.
About the Candidate
The role holder will be responsible for developing and carrying out research, producing publications, writing grant applications for external funding, networking with stakeholders in the AI/data justice space, and supporting the delivery of Goldsmiths' research programme on AI Justice led by Professor Lina Dencik.
About the Role
This programme seeks to explore the meaning of social justice in an age of datafication and artificial intelligence (AI). Acknowledging that AI-based systems do not implicate everyone in the same way, thus creating new or amplifying existing inequalities, the programme investigates the following questions: What does social justice look like in an age of AI? In what ways are people and communities impacted by the growing use of AI in society, and what are their responses? What are the implications of AI for key areas such as policing, migration and social welfare? How might AI applications be regulated and how is accountability conceptualised in systems of automation?
