The Harvard Graduate School of Education (HGSE) invites applications for one or more faculty positions in Education Leadership and Organizations. We seek individuals who work at the nexus of research, policy, and practice. This search is open rank and may result in appointments of tenured or tenure-track faculty at the rank of Assistant Professor, Associate Professor (untenured), or Professor, or of non-tenure-track faculty at the rank of Lecturer, Senior Lecturer, or Professor of Practice. Lecturers and Senior Lecturers are faculty members whose expertise derives from deep and significant professional experience in educational practice. Appointment to the rank of Professor of Practice is reserved for individuals who have earned national or international distinction for having had a major beneficial impact on education practice or policy, or for having been an exemplary leader in education or a closely related field over an extended period of time.

We especially seek candidates with the qualifications and experience to assume leadership roles in the Doctor of Education Leadership (Ed.L.D.) program, a ground-breaking cohort-based doctoral program preparing leaders to enact transformational change in the K-12 sector. Faculty members will also be expected to contribute to other master’s and doctoral programs focused on leadership, and to take leadership roles in the development and execution of short-term executive and professional development programs for school and system-level leaders. Among the topics of research and teaching expertise of particular interest to us are entrepreneurship in the education sector, leadership for instructional improvement, organizational strategy and organizational change.

Candidates for tenured or tenure-track positions should have a doctorate or another terminal degree in education, sociology, management, organizational behavior, or a related discipline, or an excellent doctoral record in one of those fields. Successful candidates for tenured or tenure-track positions will have an excellent record of scholarship in the field of organizational leadership that informs education policy and practice. Successful candidates for Lecturer or Senior Lecturer or Professor of Practice will have substantial leadership experience and a track record of accomplishment in urban school districts, entrepreneurial organizations in education or education-related governmental, not-for-profit, or for-profit organizations.

The search committee will begin reviewing applications on November 1 and will continue until the positions are filled.

Harvard Graduate School of Education prepares students and professionals of diverse backgrounds for positions of leadership in research, policy, and practice in education, and is an affirmative action employer. Applications from women, minorities, and residents of all countries are strongly encouraged.
