Job description |
Notre Dame Research is committed to creating a community that fosters equity of experience and opportunity and ensures that members of all backgrounds feel safe, welcome, and included. We strive to achieve a culture of openness, autonomy, and belonging; making Notre Dame an exceptional place for our team, partners, and collaborators to flourish. The Notre Dame Institute for Advanced Study seeks to hire a full-time Assistant Director for Educational Initiatives. About the Institute: The Notre Dame Institute for Advanced Study is a university-wide research institute based in Notre Dame Research. The NDIAS promotes issue-engaged, inclusive, and interdisciplinary study of questions that affect our ability to lead valuable, meaningful lives. Each year, the NDIAS convenes a diverse group of faculty fellows, graduate students, and undergraduate scholars to participate in a residential research community, with topics organized by an annual theme. Three features define the vision of the NDIAS:
About the Opportunity: This Assistant Director will be responsible for developing and directing five initiatives under the auspices of the Institute.
We require a candidate with at least a bachelor’s degree in an academic discipline related to the Institute’s mission: humanities, social sciences, or science engaged with social issues. We are seeking a professional with demonstrated passion for fostering research communities, skill at student mentorship, experience with creative and best-practice aligned course design, and potential to work collaboratively to design and implement interdisciplinary programs that transform student learning. This assistant director will be responsible for day-to-day program management for all of the undergraduate and PhD facing programs in a vibrant, highly active interdisciplinary research Institute. They will be a critical member of the Institute’s four-person staff, providing input and collaboration on other dimensions of the Institute’s strategy. They should be enthusiastic and adept ambassadors for the academic disciplines which form the core of our annual academic programming. We do expect the assistant director to work with our team to become skilled at this dimension of our Institute operations. The assistant director will be responsible for building out a highly effective network of campus partners and external advisors as we design our student programming. We have an outstanding team of faculty and staff in a quickly growing, relentlessly optimistic, and deeply collaborative university-wide research Institute. We want to hire into our core team someone who will advance the Institute’s ambitious goals to inspire and train the next generation of researchers. We have some preference for a candidate with a doctoral degree in an academic discipline related to the Institute’s mission: humanities, social sciences, or science engaged with social issues. The assistant director will work closely with faculty across the university and faculty fellows; campus partners in student program design; and researchers in training. Our student research programs continue to rapidly grow and develop, and the Institute has prioritized fundraising and grant development for this work. While experience with program development or grant management is a plus, it is not required. |
