Description:

Indiana University seeks an Executive Director for its renowned Center for the
Study of Global Change. The Center is a national and university-wide hub for
intellectual activity, publishing, teaching, and professional development
related to international education and global and area studies. A core
component of the Hamilton Lugar School of Global and International Studies,
the Global Center is the recipient of major grants from the Social Science
Research Council, the U.S. Department of Education, the MacArthur Foundation,
the U.S. Department of Defense, the British Council, the Mellon Foundation,
and others. The Hamilton Lugar School is the nation’s largest recipient of
Area Studies and language education grants under Title VI of the Department of
Education’s National Security Education Program. The anticipated start date is
January 1, 2020. The Executive Director would plan, initiate, and oversee a
vigorous research, programming, and educational outreach agenda.

The Center for the Study of Global Change promotes analysis and research on
global phenomena and advances interdisciplinary global learning and research.
The Global Center is recognized for its innovative approaches to scholarship
and its contribution to the comprehensive internationalization of higher
education. The Global Center is engaged in a systematic and sustained effort
to infuse global perspectives, high-quality language instruction, and global
workforce skills in graduate, undergraduate, and Pre-K-12 teaching and
learning across Indiana and the nation. The Global Center is designated as a
Department of Education Title VI National Resource Center and is a primary
coordinating hub for other Title VI NRCs in the Hamilton Lugar School.

Beyond the center itself, the Director will have a senior leadership role in
coordinating grant activities and proposals among the 10 federally-funded
language and area studies centers within the Hamilton Lugar School. The
Hamilton Lugar School currently houses eight National Resources Centers, two
Language Resource Centers, and eight Foreign Language Area Studies (FLAS),
more than any other university in the United States. The Executive Director
will oversee all Global Center programs and projects as well as coordinate and
guide joint programs and outreach of HLS’s area studies centers, particularly
the other U.S. Department of Education Title VI National Resource Centers.
