Part-time Lecturer: Introduction to the Theory and Technology of Maps<br class="">
Tufts University: School of Arts & Sciences: Science, Technology, and Society<br class="">
<br class="">
The Science, Technology, and Society (STS) program at Tufts University<br class="">
seeks a Part-Time Lecturer to teach one Geography/STS course in Spring<br class="">
2020. The course should include an introduction to GIS and<br class="">
cartography, but should also teach broader principles in the field of<br class="">
human geography, including space and place, scale, territory,<br class="">
community, and the built environment. The course syllabus should<br class="">
feature social science readings about the role of technology in<br class="">
mediating people’s relationship to space and should engage with<br class="">
theoretical work on mapping from the STS and/or critical GIS<br class="">
literature. Connections with other fields such as design and planning,<br class="">
urban sociology, American studies, and ethnic studies are welcome. The<br class="">
course will be open to students from across the university with no<br class="">
prerequisites. In addition to teaching this course, there will be<br class="">
opportunities to participate in other STS programming at Tufts, such<br class="">
as the STS Lunch Seminar and Reading Labs.<br class="">
<br class="">
The Science, Technology and Society program at Tufts has more than 40<br class="">
faculty affiliates across the university, from departments such as<br class="">
anthropology, history, mathematics, computer science, political<br class="">
science, philosophy, urban and environmental policy and planning, and<br class="">
many more. The program offers courses that draw on techniques and<br class="">
texts from the humanities and social sciences to study science and<br class="">
technology in their social context as well as courses that teach<br class="">
critically engaged modeling practices. STS offers a major and a minor<br class="">
for undergraduates. Qualifications<br class="">
<br class="">
Doctoral degree completed or in progress is preferred. Candidates<br class="">
with a master’s degree and significant teaching experience are also<br class="">
encouraged to apply.<br class="">
