Assistant Professor (Tenure Track) in Media Policy and AI Governance

We are seeking a scholar specialising in the intersection of media policy, governance, and artificial intelligence, with a research agenda that bridges media studies, normative governance, and responsible AI frameworks. The ideal candidate will bring intellectual rigour and policy relevance to questions surrounding the regulation of emerging technologies, the societal impact of algorithmic systems, ethics and governance of AI, and the evolving role of media institutions in the digital age. The successful candidate will join a dynamic department dedicated to advancing research and teaching in communication, technology policy, and digital society. A PhD in Media Studies, Communication, Public Policy, Law, or a closely related field is essential.

As artificial intelligence (AI) and emerging media reconfigures policy, power, and governance structures, we seek a scholar to examine that reconfiguration.
