Faculty 100

Faculty 100

An accomplished and engaged faculty is central to the academic mission of IU Bloomington to create, disseminate, preserve, and apply knowledge. 

With the direction and support of President Whitten, the first phase of the Faculty 100 initiative was launched in fall 2022 with the goal of amplifying our success in core research areas and position the Bloomington campus for success well into the future. Phase one was completed at the end of 2023.

Phase Two: Building Excellence

As announced in the State of the Campus address, we are now launching phase two. Phase two will prioritize hiring new faculty in alignment with two goals:

  • Expanding our capacity to pursue research priorities defined through our 2030 planning process. 
  • Developing new academic programs or growing existing areas projected to see greater student interest and aligned with workforce demands.  

We expect these intentional hires to expand capacity by not only providing a greater volume of work in areas of strategic importance, but leading to more impactful collaboration within and among departments. Such an increase in capacity has the power to improve the undergraduate experience, grow graduate education, and amplify the translational impact of research.

Each drop down provides additional information for each search as well as a link to the application(s). For more information, please email faculty1@iu.edu for the technology related searches for faculty2@iu.edu for the life science related searches.

In line with the goals of the initiative, 10 tenured/tenure track faculty searches are actively underway in the areas of technology and life sciences, including:

Candidates should demonstrate a proven ability to engage in exhibitions, screenings, and/or grant endeavors with forward-thinking research agenda and significant impact.

One position may be more tipped towards the fine arts/museum practice, one more towards the applied creative industry applications (i.e. cinema, sports, opera, live performance), but mostly we are looking for amazing artists doing innovative and exciting work across any/all terrains.

Possible co-appointment with one of our six partner IU schools: Eskenazi School of Art, Architecture, and Design, the School of Optometry, Luddy School of Informatics, the School of Public Health, the Jacobs School of Music, the College of Arts & Sciences. The determination of the appropriate IU school tenure home for one of the positions will depend on the candidates’ teaching and research interests.

Ideal Candidates: We are especially interested in candidates engaged with immersive media theory and design (including augmented, virtual, and extended reality), particularly the ways in which these technologies can intersect with other subfields including, but not limited to, environmental media and media ecologies, global media industries, political economies of media, media archaeologies (and the transition from film to video to digital to virtual), and/or queer visual cultures. Theorist-practitioners and those with experience in immersive media production are welcome and encouraged to apply.

Candidates might merge creative and interdisciplinary methods to utilize XR technologies effectively, enhancing our ability to address fundamental challenges in digital media and human-centered design. They will most likely have a history of high-impact peer-reviewed publications/exhibits or have worked in an industry setting, and have the capability to attract competitive external funding. These candidates will help form the new Kinetic Imagery and Extended Reality (KIX) Lab at Bloomington (see attached description), which has a parallel/connected facility on our Indianapolis campus, and will be involved in creating new MS/MFA graduate programs in Kinetic Imagery and Extended Reality. These faculty will have the opportunity to lead and guide the establishment of the KIX Lab, although such leadership is not a requirement of the position.

Application domains of interest are broad and include, but are not limited to, film production, film arts practice, game design, sport media, music/sound/performance, and groundbreaking art-science collaborations.

We are excited/interested in those artists/academics who are not working with XR technology but who research agenda is quickly leading in that directed.
