The Department of Education at the University of California, Los Angeles announces an opening for a tenure-track faculty member in teacher education.
UCLA's Teacher Education Program is part of Center X: Where Research and Practice Intersect for Urban School Professionals, which brings together faculty and staff to work with communities to support learning and the transformation of public schooling through work with teachers, administrators, and students. The program focuses on preparing teachers to teach for social justice in urban Los Angeles schools. The faculty member will teach both in the Center X Teacher Education Masters' program, in the doctoral program and advise Ph.D. students in the areas most pertinent to teacher education and the context of issues pertinent to urban schools, teaching and learning.
We are seeking applicants for an associate/full professor whose research and teaching interests lie in the initial preparation of teachers working in diverse urban schools. The department is particularly interested in and values candidates with professional and scholarly experience working in settings with students from diverse backgrounds, underrepresented minorities, and who have a demonstrated commitment to improving teacher education. Faculty must create and pursue a research agenda focused on teacher education practice in ways that prepare teachers for diverse urban schools. Of particular interest is a scholar who creates and studies innovation and inquiry specifically in the field of teacher education and the impact of innovation on the quality of urban teachers, including, for instance, the study of novel approaches to content methods, field work, foundation courses, university-community partnerships, community schools, and so on. Specific interests could include teacher policy, teacher learning and development, the recruitment and retention of quality teachers (especially teachers of color), approaches to teacher education that unite theory and practice in innovative ways, community-based teacher preparation, and/or ways of supporting schools in recognizing, sustaining, and building on community cultural wealth, among other things. Of additional importance is expertise and experience in studying and addressing how intersections of race, class, sexuality, immigration, gender identity, language, and access to resources affect teaching and learning in urban communities. Of additional importance is a history of experiences in urban schools, working with immigrants, English Learners, racialized/minoritized students and those living in under-resourced neighborhoods.
Basic Qualifications
Earned Ph.D., with a specialization in Teacher Education or a related field.
Preferred Qualifications
Teaching experience in urban, public K-12 schools or other settings working with underserved communities; a record of research and scholarly publications (particularly in teacher education) commensurate with appointment level; ability to teach and advise students at the graduate level in both Masters and PhD programs; a strong commitment to teacher education, social justice, and educational equity for students in urban schools; and, a willingness to generate extramural funding for research.
Salary Range
The posted UC salary scales set the minimum pay determined by rank and/or step at appointment. See Table #1 for the salary range. 'Off-scale salaries' and other components of pay, i.e. a salary that is higher than the published system-wide salary at the designated rank and step, are offered when necessary to meet competitive conditions. A reasonable estimated salary range for this position is $90,000-$170,000, inclusive of the salary scale and off-scale salary components.
The University of California is committed to creating and maintaining a community dedicated to the advancement, application, and transmission of knowledge and creative endeavors through academic excellence, where all individuals who participate in University programs and activities can work and learn together in a safe and secure environment, free of violence, harassment, bullying and other demeaning behavior, discrimination, exploitation, or intimidation. With this commitment as well as a commitment to addressing all forms of academic misconduct, UCLA conducts targeted employment reference checks for finalists to whom departments or other hiring units would like to extend formal offers of appointment into Academic Senate faculty positions. The targeted employment reference checks involve contacting the finalists' current and prior places of employment to ask whether there have been substantiated findings of misconduct that would violate the University's Faculty Code of Conduct. To implement this process, UCLA requires all applicants for Academic Senate faculty positions to complete, sign, and upload the form entitled 'Authorization to Release Information' into RECRUIT as part of their application. If the applicant does not include the signed authorization to release information with the application materials, the application will be considered incomplete. As with any incomplete application, the application will not receive further consideration. Although all applicants for faculty recruitments must complete the entire application, only finalists (i.e., those to whom the department or other hiring unit would like to extend a formal offer) considered for Academic Senate faculty positions will be subject to targeted employment reference checks.
