The Department of Educational Studies at Swarthmore College invites applications for a one-year, part-time (0.4 FTE) appointment as the School Liaison and Outreach Coordinator beginning in Fall 2023.

This position supports the department in coordinating outreach and initiatives between the department and area schools, districts, and the Pennsylvania Department of Education.

The Department of Educational Studies has 6 permanent tenure lines, one regular part-time faculty member, one Visiting Assistant Professor, and an Administrative Assistant. Students who pursue coursework in Educational Studies develop richly informed perspectives on the role of education in society and go on to become leaders in a wide range of fields.
