Position Information

To fulfill its mission and realize its vision, the Cato College of Education must be at the forefront of transformational and innovative research, education, and programming. This requires advancing academic endeavors that unabashedly oppose systemic racism and injustice. There is a critical shortage of qualified P-12 teachers and other education professionals in the United States who are equipped to address current societal challenges. Embracing access and student success, the dean will continue to build the College’s financial resources, alumni, and community relationships, as well as understand the needs of urban schools and the needs of leaders, researchers, counselors and professionals in other diverse educational and organizational settings. The next dean will also continue to build the strategic goals to best support the growing College and remain actively engaged in promoting equity and diversity within.

Research is fundamental to the mission of UNC Charlotte. Identified as an opportunity and a challenge, the next dean will strategically navigate the college’s increasing research pursuits and foster an environment of enhancing the academic reputation, doctoral programs, and funding.

Priority consideration will be given to materials received by April 22, 2021.
