Public Humanities Hub Student Representatives Needed

By Shauna Oddleifson on November 5, 2019

The Public Humanities Hub Okanagan is searching for undergraduate and graduate student representatives for its Steering Committee and various Task Forces this Academic Year 2019-2020. The Public Humanities Hub (PHH-O) at UBC Okanagan extends the UBC research cluster strategy to foster research excellence and develop Humanities collaborations with public-facing research and programming. One of PHH-O’s main goals for this Academic Year is the July 2020 conference on public-facing research among scholars across Canada, to be hosted by UBCO.

The Steering Committee of the PHH-O is responsible for strategic planning and policy-making, and making recommendations to the Director.  It may delegate the formulation of policy and programming to limited-term Task Forces dedicated to particular mandates, but takes responsibility for approving their proposals.

Task Forces are appointed by the PHH to address specific needs, such as: the formulation of a mission statement; the formulation of specific policy; the organization of an event; etc. Though the PHH-O is looking for one (1) undergraduate and one (1) graduate student representatives for the Steering Committee, some qualified students may also be contacted to be a part of one of the Task Forces.

Interested applicants may send a letter of intent outlining the following: a) why they want to be a student representative of the PHH-O Steering Committee; b) their relevant experiences to date; c) their name, program of study, and availability for this Academic Year.

The letter must be sent to public.humanities.ok@ubc.ca no later than November 15, 2019.
