Position Announcement
The Department of Education Studies (EDST) in the University of Oregon's (UO) College of Education (COE) is seeking applications for a tenure-line faculty position in Education Policy and Equity at the assistant professor rank. This individual will contribute to curriculum development, instruction, and leadership that relates to developing and analyzing educational policy as it enables or restricts equity. In a state context with significant equity-oriented education policies in K-12 and higher education, and a rich history of Indigenous, Latinx, Black, Asian, LGBTQ+, and differently-abled educators, leaders, and activists advocating for education policies, we invite this scholar to expand our students' fluency in how education policy plays a critical role in shaping equity, justice, antiracism, and/or tribal sovereignty in schools. Further, we welcome this scholar's contributions to state, local, and national efforts to evaluate, create, alter, and/or implement education policy.
Candidates may have any focal area of policy expertise and we invite scholars whose work integrates multiple disciplinary perspectives in the conceptualization, evaluation, and/or implementation of education policies. Similarly, candidates may approach their policy research using quantitative, qualitative, or mixed methods designs. Possible examples include:
• Policy toward access and success of historically marginalized students in higher education.
• Teacher policy including the preparation, recruitment, development, and retention of Latinx, Black, Indigenous, and Asian teachers.
• Critical policy studies that look beyond access and seek transformation of existing institutions.
• Comparative education policy that decenters a U.S. perspective and instead takes a transnational approach to understanding education systems, structures, and policies.
This position's primary instructional duties will be in two programs: (1) the Educational Foundations (EdF) undergraduate program, and (2) the Education Policy and Leadership (EPoL) Master of Science program. Also included are opportunities to work in UOTeach (MEd), Quantitative Research Methods in Education (PhD), Critical and Sociocultural Studies in Education (PhD), and other graduate programs at the university depending on the candidate's experience, expertise, and interest. Teaching loads are determined in accordance with the Collective Bargaining Agreement and the COE professional responsibilities workload policy. The current policy states that the teaching load for tenure-track faculty in the UO COE is five courses per year, taught over three quarters. Faculty who apply for external grants teach four courses per year, taught over three quarters.
The position start date is September 16, 2025 to align with our academic year quarter system.
For questions about the position, contact the search chair, Dr. Ilana Umansky at mailto:ilanau@uoregon.edu.
Department or Program Summary
The COE at the UO is a community of leading researchers and practitioners dedicated to transformational scholarship, integrated teaching, and collaborative practice designed to enhance individual lives and systems within a culture that values diversity and promotes respect and inclusion. The COE is home to 3 academic departments, 14 academic degree programs, 14 research and outreach units, the HEDCO Clinic, and the HEDCO Institute. Our goal at the COE is to set our graduates on career-long paths to purposeful, reflective, creative, and meaningful careers. Addressing inequity and racial injustice is a thread that runs through our majors and programs while focusing on critical and effective systems and pedagogies.
The Department of Education Studies (EDST) in the COE is home to five-degree programs focused on general education: a BA/BS in Educational Foundations (EdF); the UOTeach master's degree leading to teaching licensure; the Education Policy and Leadership (EPoL) master's degree program; the Ph.D. program in Critical and Sociocultural Studies in Education (CSSE); and the PhD program in Quantitative Research Methods in Education (QRME). EDST is also home to the Indigenous-led Sapsik'ʷała teacher preparation program which operates as a Consortium with the nine federally recognized Tribal Nations in Oregon. The successful applicant will demonstrate a commitment to building and sustaining a multidisciplinary community and the capacity to contribute to EDST's record of excellence in scholarship, teaching, service, and commitment to equity and inclusion.
The EdF program is one of the top 10 requested undergraduate majors at UO, supports diverse groups of undergraduate students, and centers on social justice in education. While the contributions of this new hire to EdF will depend on the scholar, possible courses might include a large survey course for all EdF students and an upper division course.
The new hire will also be a core faculty member for EDST's EPoL program, which is entering its third year. The EPoL graduate program is the only education policy program in the state of Oregon and one of only a few on the West Coast.
