We welcome candidates representing different disciplinary perspectives and methodological approaches.

The ideal candidate will have demonstrated success working with K-12 educational leaders at the federal, state, district, and /or school levels, preferably through Research Practice Partnerships aimed at improving outcomes for students, educators, and their local communities. The successful candidate will provide leadership in GSE's efforts to interweave research and practice in its K-12 educational leadership programs and centers. Depending on the candidate's interest, there may also be an opportunity for the successful candidate to take a leadership role in Penn GSE's McGraw Center for Educational Leadership.
