centers.

  
The ATS will report to the Senior Director of the Educational Technologies
unit within Academic IT Solutions, part of Yale University Information

  * Provide the leadership and technical expertise necessary to envision and execute exceptional, innovative projects. Within the corresponding departments, this will involve innovations in technology-enhanced pedagogy and research technology.
  * Research, analyze and evaluate potential projects; provide advice and consultation on technical matters relating to teaching and research technology; and design, develop and execute project plans in collaboration with faculty and graduate students. This may include a range from custom programming and data base methods to web-based application development and data visualization.
  * The ATS will spend approximately 20% of his/her time in direct collaboration with an extended cohort of other professionals, including other ATSs, Library specialists, and IT specialists across the campus. These collaborations will be directed towards the development of technology solutions that cross the disciplines and bring value to the Yale research and teaching landscape.
