The AGRI Chair will also be expected to build networks and partnerships within the U of A, and externally, to support the advancement of research and scholarship in the field of gambling, mental health and addiction studies. The AGRI Chair will be expected to maintain awareness of major AGRI events, funding opportunities, and strategic research priorities. Salary will be commensurate with experience and qualifications in accordance with the Faculty Agreement as per the negotiated salary scales. This position offers a comprehensive benefits package.
The appointment as AGRI Research Chair is for an initial 5-year term, renewable depending on funding availability. Thereafter, the chair-holder will hold a regular faculty appointment in the Department of Psychology in the Faculty of Arts.
