Canada Research Chair

York’s research vision is “to aspire to better understand the human condition and the world around us, and to employ the knowledge we gain in the service of society and the health of the planet.” As outlined in our 2023-2028 Strategic Research Plan _Knowledge for the Future: From Creation and Discovery to Application_, York University is providing internationally recognized leadership in several areas that are directly relevant to this CRC in ‘Technology, Society and Disability’, most notably ‘Building Healthy Lives, Communities and Reimagining Futures’ and ‘Reaching New Horizons in Science, Technology and Society.’ In addition, York has identified several areas of research growth, including ‘Digital Cultures and Disruptive Technologies’, and ‘Inter
- and Transdisciplinary Research Innovation’, that position this CRC at the centre of York’s emerging research.
This CRC will develop and expand their research in this area and seek interdisciplinary collaborations within the Faculty and across the University, including through participation in its associated Research Centres (Centre for Integrative and Applied Neuroscience (CIAN), Centre for Artificial Intelligence and Society (CAIS), Institute for Technoscience and Society (ITS) and many others) and relevant graduate research programs. The Chair will have a significant track record of funding from SSHRC or other agencies/programs supporting relevant research in the humanities or social sciences (e.g., CIHR translational research). They will advance a research program that both pursues and has a proven record of impact in and for relevant local, national, and international communities.
The Canada Research Chairs (CRC) program seeks to attract outstanding researchers for careers at Canadian universities. Tier 1 Chairs are intended for outstanding researchers acknowledged by their peers as world leaders in their fields. Appointment to a Tier 1 Chair is for seven years, is renewable once, and comes with enhanced research support from the program. Nominees for Tier 1 Chair positions must be full professors or associate professors who are expected to be promoted to the full professor level within one or two years of the nomination. Alternatively, if they come from outside the academic sector, nominees must possess the necessary qualifications to be appointed at these levels. Please see the CRC website for further eligibility details.
Recognizing the underrepresentation of women and gender minorities among CRCs, this position is open only to qualified researchers who indicate on the Affirmative Action self-identification form (see below) that they identify as women or gender non-conforming (e.g., genderfluid, nonbinary, Two-Spirit, trans man, trans woman). The appointment is part of the University’s Affirmative Action program, which is based on the special program provisions of the Ontario Human Rights Code.
**- Degree**: PhD or PhD equivalent (e.g., MA/MFA) with a substantial record of professional experience in a relevant social science or humanities (disciplinary or interdisciplinary) field is required.
**- Scholarship**:
- A coherent and well-articulated program of research, research creation and/or professional practice and specialization in Technology, Society and Disability.
- A record of generating innovative, substantive, rigorous, and as appropriate, externally funded research and/or research creation.
- A record of making influential contributions and demonstrating excellence in the field or in interdisciplinary intellectual spaces (e.g., publications in key journals, major presentations, awards and accolades, knowledge mobilization with and for people with disabilities, community-based and policy impacts).
- **Teaching**:
- A record of excellence in teaching and dedication to students (e.g., teaching accomplishments, pedagogical innovations, experience in making teaching accessible, student and peer evaluations).
- Suitability for prompt appointment to the Faculty of Graduate Studies, given that the position will involve graduate teaching and supervision.
- **Additional**: Preference is for a researcher with strong collaborative research portfolio across social sciences and biomedicine; a researcher with a multi methods or mixed methods approach; a researcher with strong ties to community (disability rights, patient groups).
**Hiring Policies**:
- Salary will be commensurate with qualifications and experience.
Determined by the hiring unit and York University, not the CRC program.
