Lecturer in Educational Practice Position
Literacy, Culture, and International Education
The Division of Literacy, Culture, and International Education at the University of Pennsylvania's Graduate School of Education (GSE) seeks applicants for a lecturer in educational practice position to support our International Educational Development Program starting in Fall 2021. We are looking for an applied scholar with an interdisciplinary background in research, policy and practice.
The successful candidate should be trained in the social sciences and education, have earned a doctorate in a closely related field, and have at least five years experience in the international development arena. Candidates with a background in early childhood are strongly preferred, although we are open to various relevant specialization (including policy, learning and teaching, humanitarian issues, gender, and so on).
The position requires teaching four graduate courses per year; competitive candidates must have a strong background in graduate-level teaching and advising with demonstrated teaching excellence. The position will also provide administrative support to our distinctive internship program, based on the candidate's strengths, which may include field training, field supervision, student placement oversight, career planning, and so on.
Applications from candidates with multi-cultural and international backgrounds, or from traditionally under-represented minority groups are particularly encouraged to apply. This is a non-tenure track, three-year appointment. The position is subject to review at three-year intervals and is renewable at the discretion of the Division as long as academic need persists.
Review of applications will begin immediately and we will continue to consider new applications until June 7 or until the position is filled. Please send a letter expressing your interest and general qualifications, curriculum vitae, names and contact information for three references, and two relevant manuscripts (in PDF form) to https://apply.interfolio.com/86763

Organization
Welcome to the University of Pennsylvania! Penn is the largest private employer in Philadelphia and is a world-renowned leader in education, research, and innovation.
Across our 12 highly-regarded schools, more than 25,000 students, and more than 4,000 faculty members, we become one university: a wide-ranging, ever-changing community that draws its strength from a multitude of races, ethnicities, genders, sexual orientations, historical traditions, ages, religions, disabilities, veteran status, interests, perspectives, and socioeconomic backgrounds.
Penn carries on the principles and spirit of its founder, Benjamin Franklin: entrepreneurship, innovation, invention, outreach, and a pragmatic love of knowledge. Franklin's practical outlook has remained a driving force in the university's development. To learn more, visit About Penn.
Vision
As engines of knowledge and new ideas, universities have the unique potential to define the future rather than be defined by it; to pioneer change rather than merely manage it. To do so requires a plan both visionary and pragmatic. The Penn Compact 2022 motivates community members to innovate, be radically inclusive, and positively impact their local, national, and global communities.
Penn’s fundamental priorities — increasing access, integrating knowledge and engaging locally, nationally and globally — are supported by the three core values that make us uniquely Penn: inclusion, innovation, and impact.

Diversity
Understanding and appreciating diversity is one of Penn's most important priorities and is fundamental to success in today's world.
Penn adheres to a policy that prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, creed, national or ethnic origin, citizenship status, age, disability, veteran status, or any other legally protected class.
