Job description
CCI Cyber Law Researcher
William & Mary Law School's Center for Legal & Court Technology (CLCT) seeks to hire a Cyber Law Researcher supported by Virginia's Commonwealth Cyber Initiative (CCI), a General Assembly funded state-wide effort to enhance and enlarge cyber law research and education in Virginia. Funding for this position is entirely supported by CCI funding, and the position is dependent on that funding. The CCI Cyber Law Researcher, also described as a CLCT Assistant Director for Research, is primarily responsible for assisting CLCT in its research into (and dissemination of that research) the interrelationship between AI and law, the world's legal systems, and the work of courts, including judges, and the practice of law. This work includes research, curriculum development for related courses, teaching courses, drafting papers, articles, and other publications, planning and participating in conferences and presentations, helping the Court Affiliates, providing timely status reports on a schedule set by the supervisor, and assisting CLCT staff, especially student Fellows. This can extend outside AI, especially to address other technology-related matters. Among other matters, CCI emphasizes cybersecurity and AI. The Researcher will assist CCI researchers by explaining the basic nature of legal rules likely to affect their work, including the basics of intellectual property. This does not include legal representation or legal advice with respect to specific active matters. The Researcher is expected to create, with help from CLCT and COVA CCI, a periodic program to provide CCI researchers with this information. A CCI goal is to encourage universities to produce highly competent, technology aware, and capable graduates. To this end, the Researcher must also support CLCT's student Fellows through mentorship and other activities.
