Our locations—in Boston; Charlotte, North Carolina; London; Portland, Maine; San Francisco; Seattle; Silicon Valley; Toronto; Vancouver; and the Massachusetts communities of Burlington and Nahant—are nodes in our growing global university system. Through this network, we expand opportunities for flexible, student-centered learning and collaborative, solutions-focused research.

Northeastern's comprehensive array of undergraduate and graduate programs— in a variety of on-campus and online formats—lead to degrees through the doctorate in nine colleges and schools. Among these, we offer more than 195 multi-discipline majors and degrees designed to prepare students for purposeful lives and careers.

The ideal candidate would have a scholarly focus on the privacy and other legal implications of artificial intelligence and other technologies that rely on algorithms, machine learning, and/or human-computer interaction, as well as a perspective informed by one or more fields of the social sciences or humanities.

The School of Law has long been a national leader in experiential legal education, with a deep commitment to law in service of the public interest and to engaged scholarship and interdisciplinary collaboration. In making faculty appointments, the School of Law seeks to enhance its innovative curriculum, which combines experiential learning with rigorous analytical training and interdisciplinarity.

The College of Social Sciences and Humanities is a leader in the Experiential Liberal Arts with commitment to the analysis of hierarchies, intersectionality, and race, racism and social justice through all our work.

Qualifications:
