PRR Project

Summary

Aligning with the university´s "comprehensive internationalization strategy to increase global impact and visibility," this research Unit develops numerous collaborative archaeology and heritage programs with partners spanning the Mediterranean region, Middle East, and Latin America.A prime example of this internationalization program is seen in the Kani Shaie Archaeological Project, a project lead by CEAACP, which includes the exclusivity of concessions for archaeological work licenses at archaeological sites related to the origins of complex societies in the Middle East. The sustainability of such program requires:– Stable and highly motivated interdisciplinary research teams using and implementing innovative technological and laboratory tools;– Maintaining existing international partnerships while constantly building new strategic networks;– Promotion of scientific diplomacy through the maintenance of partnerships while constantly building new strategic networks in these areas;– Securing external funding and integrating research with advanced graduate training;– Community outreach and showcasing heritage as a means of inclusive, ethical progress;– Organizational and project management work within research and the Institution´s current Board.The researcher must demonstrate skills and attributes to develop work in the internationalization research program in the area of Humanities, particularly Archaeology and Heritage, with a background in archaeology and history of Ancient Mesopotamia.The candidate must demonstrate skills and attributes to develop work in the internationalization research program in the area of Humanities, particularly Archaeology and Heritage, with a background in archaeology and history of Ancient Mesopotamia.The candidate must fully commit to participation in the Unit´s international research teams, including undertaking extended periods of fieldwork during excavation seasons. It needs to demonstrate aptitude to manage groups of diverse nationalities and expertises united under common project goals through collaborative strategies sensitive to intercultural dynamics, particularly of the Middle East.The candidate must showcase relevant skills and enthusiasm to directly contribute to the Unit´s commitment of co-creating state-of-the-art digital means to document and disseminate both movable and immovable heritage and scientific production. This includes developing open access publication platforms to share primary excavation data with both academic and public users.Incorporating laboratory methods and emerging technologies into heritage management and promotion represents the developing methodological, scientific and technical progress within this study domain. Through that he should also contribute to a more equitable public access to these scientific and cultural resources.
