About the Role

The Research Assistant supports the Supervisor with a range of moderate to complex research activities with a focus on knowledge dissemination and/or translation. Specifically, the RA will have skills in computer programming, setting up websites and linking a front-facing website to the Open Journal System (OJS) and the Mount Royal Open Access Repository. The successful RA will work closely with the Supervisor to launch the HCE Research to Practice (Praxis) Hub. The R2P Hub is a space that helps to disseminate existing and traditional research productivity into a non-traditional, peer-reviewed space with audiences that go beyond other academics such as practitioners working in a discipline, industry experts,



or communities where research and scholarship have direct impact. The RA will help to write some of the R2P Hub governance models and shape some of the practices related to a newly defined pairing of academic experts and community expert peer review.

This is a adaptable position whose work schedule is variable and may include an irregular schedule of not less than three (3) hours per shift and up to thirty-five (35) hours per week.
