About Brown:

Brown University is a leading research university distinct for its student-centered learning and deep sense of purpose. Our students, faculty and staff are driven by the idea that their work will have an impact in the world.

About the Opportunity:

The Data Science Institute (DSI) is a campus hub for research and education in the emerging field of data science. DSI currently includes two interdisciplinary research centers, the Center for Computational Molecular Biology (CCMB) and the Center for Technological Responsibility (CNTR).

CNTR’s mission is to redefine computer science education, research, and technology to center the needs, problems, and aspirations of all those that technology has left behind.

The Center for Technological Responsibility, Reimagination and Redesign is a research center within Brown University’s Data Science Institute. Through its research and educational mission, the Center shows how to build technology that works—for all—by ensuring a focus not on what we build, but on the people we are building for. The Center engages students at all levels in transdisciplinary research to create new tools and technologies, influence technology policy, and rethink how we educate the technological workforce, with an eye to impact-driven work. We collaborate widely across Brown’s campus and with other institutions and organizations.

The Program Manager, as the inaugural Manager of the Center, will lead development on short- and long-term strategic plans to establish focused work streams within the Center, working closely with the Center Director.

Responsibilities include:

Work with the Center Director to manage the day-to-day activities of the center, and engage with the center affiliates (faculty, staff, and students).
Work closely with the staff of the Data Science Institute on financial and budgeting issues, communications and outreach, event planning, and other activities.
Evaluate, track and document CNTR projects and activities.
Provide reports on center activities and continually evaluate programs for impact and make data-driven recommendations for changes.

Bachelor's degree plus a minimum of 3 years of experience in supporting an academic or research center, or similar role in higher education, or equivalent combination of education and experience.
Experience in professional communications and outreach best practices
