Mills College also invites applications for an open rank tenure-track faculty position in Educational Leadership beginning August 2017. The Educational Leadership program at Mills College has undergone tremendous growth in recent years, and attracts doctoral, masters, and administrative credential students who are committed to a social justice model of education. Their graduates go on to become agents of change as leaders in urban schools and districts in the preparation of teachers and educational leaders and through administrative posts within higher education and educational non-profits.
The ideal candidate will have a scholarly focus on urban education and demonstrated commitment to social justice and social change in education. This successful candidate will teach graduate courses in the Educational Leadership program, supervise doctoral student research, maintain a productive program of scholarship, and active engagement in service to the program, School and College. They seek a productive scholar with a commitment to research and publishing as well as to teaching and mentoring students. The ability to help us to build connections with Oakland and the surrounding urban school districts, and a willingness to work collaboratively in the preparation of school administrators is strongly desired. In addition, they have a growing number of students interested in issues of equity and justice in higher education, so expertise in that area would also be welcome.
