The Stanford Graduate School of Education (GSE) seeks to fill a tenure-track, open-rank faculty position in Teacher Education. We welcome applications from scholars with expertise and an active and rigorous research agenda in the field of teacher education, broadly conceived.  Candidates’ research and practice should address broad issues of teaching, teacher education, or related policy.  Previous involvement in teacher education policy is desirable, especially as it pertains to the preparation of teachers to work with culturally and linguistically diverse student populations.

Senior candidates should have a distinguished record of scholarship and teaching.  Junior candidates should have completed a doctorate before the date of appointment and show evidence of excellent research and teaching potential.

All applicants should provide the following:

  • a cover letter describing their research agenda, teaching, and other relevant experience
