**Canada Research Chair (Tier 2) in Community-Engaged Plains Archaeology**:
The University of Saskatchewan is one of the leading centres for Indigenous research in Canada, with one of the highest levels of enrolment by Indigenous students at any major Canadian university. The Department of Anthropology is dedicated to the principles of Reconciliation, outreach, and community engagement. Our faculty members have active partnerships with Wanuskewin Heritage Park, the Saskatchewan Archaeological Society, the Saskatchewan Association of Professional Archaeologists, the Saskatchewan Government’s Heritage Conservation Branch, the Royal Saskatchewan Museum, Parks Canada, Saskatchewan Provincial Parks, the Canadian Museum of History, cultural resource management firms, and communities in Saskatchewan and beyond. In particular, the CRC in Community-Engaged Plains Archaeology will be encouraged to affiliate with the Wanuskewin Institute on archaeological research initiatives grounded in the local landscape and inspired by the peoples, cultures, and natural environment of the Northern Plains. The Wanuskewin Institute was created out of the long-standing and highly valued partnership between the Department of Anthropology, University of Saskatchewan, and Wanuskewin Heritage Park. The Park is currently on course to achieve UNESCO World Heritage Site designation by as early as 2026.
The University of Saskatchewan is one of Canada’s top 15 research-intensive universities. Its main campus is situated on Treaty Six Territory and the Homeland of the Métis. The University of Saskatchewan is located in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, with a diverse and thriving economic base, a vibrant arts community, and a full range of leisure opportunities. The university has a reputation for excellence in teaching, research, and scholarly activities, and offers a full range of undergraduate, graduate, and professional programs to a student population of over 25,000.
**About the Position**
This call is for a Tier 2 Canada Research Chair position.
For a Tier 2 Chair, the successful applicant will be appointed as an Associate or Assistant Professor. Tier 2 Chairs are intended for exceptional emerging scholars who have less than 10 years of experience as an active researcher in their field at the time of nomination. Applicants who are more than 10 years from having earned their highest degree may have their eligibility for a Tier 2 Chair assessed through the program’s Tier 2 justification process.
**Qualifications**
The University of Saskatchewan offers a competitive salary with provisions for special increases based on meritorious performance. A CRC stipend is also provided, with guaranteed funding for equipment, infrastructure, and students. This position features a comprehensive benefits package which includes dental, health, and extended vision care plans; pension plan, life insurance (compulsory and voluntary), academic long-term disability, sick leave, travel insurance, death benefits, an employee assistance program, a professional expense allowance, and a flexible health and wellness spending program.
**How to Apply**
The University of Saskatchewan is committed to employment equity, diversity, and inclusion in its faculty complement and is proud to support career opportunities that address the under-representation of members of the four designated groups (women and gender equity seeking groups; racialized individuals; Indigenous Peoples; and persons with disabilities) defined under the Employment Equity Act among chair allocations. In consideration of the University’s strategic directions, and to achieve the EDI targets and goals of USask’s action plan and as established by the CRC Secretariat, this position is restricted to a scholar who identifies as a member of one of the four designated groups. Preference will be granted to Indigenous scholars. The University of Saskatchewan relies on section 56 of The Saskatchewan Human Rights Code to give this preference in employment. Recruitment will be guided by the **Canada Research Chairs Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Practices** and by the strong commitment to equity and diversity of the University of Saskatchewan.
