Applications are invited for:-

Faculty of Arts
Lecturer (AI Humanities)
(Ref. 260001SN) (Closing Date: December 1, 2026)

The Faculty of Arts at the Chinese University of Hong Kong invites applications for a lecturer position in AI Humanities.

We seek to appoint a candidate who will directly contribute to the MA Programme in AI Humanities that was recently launched. Administered by the Faculty rather than one particular department, this innovative and interdisciplinary taught postgraduate programme draws on the extensive teaching and research expertise in multiple academic disciplines across the Faculty. Our goal is to bridge humanities inquiry and the fast-evolving technological domain and prepare our students for different career paths in many sectors. For further information on the programme, please visit https://www.arts.cuhk.edu.hk/web/master-of-arts-in-ai-humanities/introduction.

Candidates for the lecturer position should possess practical computational skills and expertise, a deep understanding of humanities research and inquiry, and the ability to engage students with or without a technical background. A doctoral degree in a relevant discipline, such as computational humanities, computer-supported creative media, or computer science, is expected. A demonstrated record of teaching experience and excellence will be an advantage. Besides working closely with a team to develop the programme curriculum and supervise students' projects, the appointee will also have an opportunity to contribute to the development of AI research and application in the Faculty.

Terms of appointment will be commensurate with the successful candidate’s qualifications and experience. The appointment will initially be made on contract basis for two years, commencing in August 2027, renewable subject to performance and mutual agreement.

Application Procedure

Applications with the following items should be submitted to the CUHK career site: (1) cover letter; (2) updated curriculum vitae; (3) two sample syllabi for postgraduate-level courses; (4) previous teaching evaluations, if available; (5) one example of written work, published or unpublished; and (6) contact details of three referees who have consented to provide reference letters.

The University only accepts and considers applications submitted online for the post above via the CUHK career site. For more information and to apply online, please visit http://career.cuhk.edu.hk.
