University of Massachusetts – Boston
Boston, MA
Assistant Professor and Director of Educator Preparation
Candidates with backgrounds in early childhood education, mathematics education, field supervision of student teachers, and/or teaching social justice courses are especially encouraged to apply.
UMass Boston considers itself a “research university with a teaching soul.” We are Boston’s only public university, the third most diverse university in the United States (we are engaged in efforts to ensure that the faculty better represent our student population), an urban-serving institution (and part of the MSI program), and one of the best colleges of education in the nation. We are also located on a beautiful seaside campus in the vibrant neighborhood of Dorchester.
This is a unique position with a 1-1 teaching load and the remaining workload dedicated to overseeing and developing our teacher preparation programs that span from early childhood to secondary education with an emphasis on justice and equity. This faculty member will work with our excellent practicum office staff who are responsible for placing student teachers and completing state teacher licensure tasks.
