This position is contingent upon budgetary approval. Assistant / Associate Number of Positions: 1 Posting Date: September 16, 2021 Application Review Date: November 1, 2021 or until a suitable candidate is found The Faculty of Social Science and Humanities invites applications for a SSHRC Tier 2 Canada Research Chair (CRC) in Criminology and Social Justice. The proposed CRC will engage in empirical research contributing to fields of inquiry including, but not limited to: structural and systemic racism; class and gender inequality; social inclusion and exclusion; overrepresentation of marginalized persons within the criminal justice system; and the role of digital technologies in perpetuating or mitigating social inequalities. To address the underrepresentation of women in Canada Research Chair faculty positions, this opportunity is only open to individuals who self-identify as women in the application process. This appointment is a full time continuing tenured or tenure track position at the assistant or associate professor level. Applicants must meet the eligibility requirements for a Tier 2 CRC position. Tier 2 Chairs are intended for exceptional emerging scholars (i.e. candidates must have been an exceptional, active researcher in their field for fewer than 10 years at the time of nomination). Applicants who are more than 10 years from completion of their PhDs due to career breaks (including maternity leave, extended sick leave, clinical training, etc.) may have their eligibility for a Tier 2 CRC assessed through the program’s Tier 2 justification process. Please see the CRC website for further eligibility details or contact the Office of the Vice President Research and Innovation for more information: research@ontariotechu.ca. Subject to review and final approval by the CRC Secretariat, each CRC may be held for five years and is renewable once. New CRC nominees are eligible for infrastructure support from the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI) to help acquire state-of-the-art research equipment essential to their work, funding for graduate student research assistants, and a reduced teaching load. More information about the Institutional Support provided by Ontario Tech, to successful CRCs, can be found at the following link: https://shared.ontariotechu.ca/shared/department/research/documents/crc- equity/institutional-support-for-crc-procedure-.pdf.

Ontario Tech University recognizes that alternative career paths and/or career interruptions (e.g. parental leave, leave due to illness) can impact research achievements and commits to ensuring that leaves are taken into careful consideration.
