As part of a major expansion of its research programs, the Faculty of Education of the University of Ottawa is seeking applicants for a tenure-track position.
The Faculty of Education is located on the unceded ancestral land of the Algonquin people, in the heart of Canada’s capital. It provides its education students, its education researchers, and its 60 professors with a stimulating intellectual environment. This recruitment effort is also part of the Faculty’s 2025 Strategic Plan, which focuses on innovation, educational technologies, a dynamic Francophonie, Indigenous rights, anti-racism, equity, and social justice.
Position title: Assistant professor in Education – Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) (Francophone education sector)
This recruitment process aligns with University initiatives to promote equity, diversity, and inclusion among students, teachers and education executives to combat discrimination experienced by certain groups and individuals (based on their sexual orientation, skin colour, origin, religion, intellectual or physical limitations, etc.) notably due to their under-representation in society. This recruitment aims to hire a candidate who is also interested in issues related to equity, diversity, and inclusion in education and who would adopt an interdisciplinary approach consistent with the needs and challenges that students face in the post-pandemic 21st century.
We are seeking candidates who can contribute to current practices and research on EDI education in a Francophone setting in Ontario, in Canada, and internationally. Among the research topics explored will be theories and trends on equity and inclusion of groups and individuals from minority communities, regardless of type, with a view to better understanding the processes inherent to them. This research could also cut across other areas of inclusive education or fields such as history, specialized education, environmental education, curriculum theory, leadership, etc. The incumbent will also need to know the current direction of topics related to the concept of diversity and the methods used to take diversity into account.
We encourage applications from individuals who wish to work in interdisciplinary ways with other faculties and institutes at the University (such as the faculties of Social Sciences, Arts, Health Sciences) to foster links with school boards and community organizations in order to improve research on, and educational opportunities for, students encountering discrimination in Ontario, in Canada, or internationally.
Duties: The functions of a member of the teaching staff include, to varying degrees: a) teaching activities; b) scholarly activities that involve research, artistic or literary creation, or professional work; c) service to the University community; and d) supervision of graduate students.
Terms: Assistant professor (leading to a tenure-track appointment)
Remuneration: Base salary for assistant professors is $89,622 (based on the scale in effect as of May 1, 2023).
Benefits: The University of Ottawa provides a comprehensive benefits package that includes long-term disability coverage, basic group life insurance, supplementary health insurance, a pension plan, and reimbursement of eligible moving expenses.
Work location: University of Ottawa, Faculty of Education, Ottawa (Ontario) K1N 6N5.
