Aim Jobs in Baltimore, MD (NOW HIRING)

The Artificial Intelligence Interdisciplinary Institute at Maryland (AIM; aim.umd.edu) has openings for 10 lecturer positions (at all levels). There are two roles that candidates may apply for and candidates must select which role they seek in their application. The first is a standard lecturer role, whose primary responsibilities will be in teaching courses related to artificial intelligence, broadly construed. The second role combines the lecturer role with responsibilities around building and maintaining external relationships with community organizations, companies, NGOs, etc. and will involve both teaching responsibilities and external engagement responsibilities.

All professional track faculty members in AIM will work with our bright and amazing students and play a key role in teaching our artificial intelligence curricula. This hiring is in addition to 30 tenured and/or tenure-track faculty positions. As a member of AIM, applicants will join and help further our mission of defining and engaging in interdisciplinary AI education across all of the UMD College Park campus, and in building a thriving and inclusive AI community.

Strong candidates will be considered in all areas of AI, particularly those whose educational and teaching experience align with AIM's degree programs and other educational goals. AIM is proud to be partnering with other units on campus to launch two undergraduate degree programs in AI, a Bachelor of Arts and a Bachelor of Science degree. In addition, AIM seeks faculty who are interested in teaching general education courses or "big questions" courses that engage students from all disciplines, as well as capstone courses or AI clinics. We are especially looking for candidates that are interested in cross-disciplinary education as well as actively participating in a strong community of AI-related scholars. The Bachelor of Arts in Artificial Intelligence is a program that provides students with the technical skills necessary to engage with contemporary AI in a meaningful way and trains students in disciplines from the arts, the humanities, and the social sciences to enable them to understand, evaluate, and contribute to work in AI in a unique way. Specializations will include: Ethics; Language and Cognition; Design and User Experience; and Society, Culture and Technology. The Bachelor of Science in Artificial Intelligence is a highly technical program that trains students to build new AI systems and algorithms from the ground up, understand the training of models from both a data and systems perspective, and then use those techniques in interdisciplinary applications. Specializations will include: Generative AI; AI, Society, and Decision Making; AI Algorithms; Accessibility; and Robotics.
