CANADA RESEARCH CHAIR IN
CHILDREN, YOUTH AND GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT
The Faculty of
Arts and Social Sciences (FASS) at Dalhousie University invites applications
for a Tier I Canada Research Chair on “Children, Youth and Global
Development.” The appointment will be at the rank of Professor and will be
conditional on the successful applicant being approved as a Tier 1 Research
Chair by the CRC secretariat, with an anticipated start date of 1 July 2014.
The position is open with regard to disciplinary specialization, with a primary
appointment in one of the Faculty's Departments (Classics, English, French,
German, History, International Development Studies, Music, Philosophy,
Political Science, Russian Studies, Sociology and Social Anthropology, Spanish
and Latin American Studies or Theatre).  A research emphasis on the area of 
children, youth and conflict would be
an asset. Dalhousie University has growing strength in the broad area of
“Children and Youth in Challenging Contexts”, including researchers in the
School of Social Work and the Faculty of Medicine as well as FASS. This
strength is reflected, for example, in a new Network Centres of Excellence
Knowledge Mobilization grant on Children in Challenging Contexts and the Centre
for Foreign Policy Studies Child Soldiers/Conflict Affected Youth initiatives.
The successful candidate will be expected to sustain a strong research program
of their own, and in so doing actively contribute to intra- and inter-faculty
collaborations in this area of emphasis.

Candidates must
have a PhD, an outstanding research profile, and an innovative and original
research programme; a strong track-record of obtaining external funding; and
the ability to work co-operatively, provide leadership in an interdisciplinary
environment, develop multi-faceted research projects, and work with graduate
students and/or post-doctoral fellows. Although this is primarily a research
appointment, the appointee will be expected to teach at the graduate and
undergraduate level.


The Canada
Research Chairs (CRC) Programme has been established by the Government of
Canada to enable Canadian universities to foster research excellence and
enhance their role as world-class centres of research excellence. More
information about the Canada Research Chairs Programme is available at: 
http://www.chairs.gc.ca. Please note that
the CRC nominations are subject to review and final approval by the CRC
Secretariat. 

Dalhousie is the leading graduate and research university of Atlantic Canada,
with more than 17,000 students from over 100 countries (more than 3500 in
graduate programmes). It is located in Halifax – the major centre in the scenic
Atlantic region and a city widely known for its high quality of life. Further
information about the Faculty and the university can be obtained at 
www.dal.ca/fass <http://www.dal.ca/fass>.
Dalhousie University is an Employment Equity/Affirmative Action employer. The
University encourages applications from qualified Aboriginal people, persons
with a disability, racially visible persons and women.

Applications should include a detailed curriculum vitae, a two-page summary of
the candidate's proposed research programme, a statement of research and 
teaching
interests and philosophies, and three confidential letters of reference
forwarded by the referees. All application materials should be sent in hard
copy.
