Dear Colleagues,
At the Faculty of Information and Media Studies at Western University, we
are excited to announce our search for a tenure system (or full time,
Limited Term) faculty appointment in any area of FIMS scholarship,
teaching, and creative activity, including Media Studies and Production
(including popular music and culture), journalism, library and information
science, and health information science.
We would be grateful if you could circulate our announcement where the
opportunities arise in your organization and among your members. A detailed
file is attached, and the announcement can also be found at the link here:

For your information, the Faculty of Information and Media Studies
https://www.fims.uwo.ca/ (FIMS) at Western University is dedicated to the
advancement of knowledge about media, communications and information. We
study technologies, systems, histories and practices to understand the role
of media and information in democratic process and the social and cultural
determinants of power and agency. Across our programs, we foster two key
capacities in our students: the ability to think critically about the world
in which we live, and the skill and confidence to make interventions in our
communities and lifeworlds. We intend this appointment to contribute to
those capacities and to bring Indigenous approaches to knowledge and
teaching to FIMS.
Thank you for your assistance in announcing our search.
Warm wishes,
Lisa Henderson
Professor and Dean
