This innovative merger offers students, faculty, and staff a treasure trove of resources and services to support study, research, scholarship, and learning.

Connecticut College invites applications for the Harold F. Wiley Postdoctoral Fellow in Artificial Intelligence. This is a unique and dynamic opportunity to lead a transformative initiative aimed at integrating AI into the liberal arts. The successful candidate will work closely with faculty, students, and staff to enhance teaching, research, and outreach efforts related to AI.
The fellow will report to the Director of Research Support & Curricular Technology within Library & Information Technology and will be co-located with library staff dedicated to instructional technology and digital scholarship. The College will match the fellow with a faculty mentor in an appropriate discipline to ensure that they continue to be engaged with their scholarly interests and assess appropriate career opportunities. This is a two-year position to help jumpstart our AI efforts across campus. Please note that unlike research fellowships that offer opportunities for fellows to pursue an independent research agenda, this will be the secondary focus of their work.
