Call For Applications: 2024-2025 Dean-in-Residence

By Kelley Karnes

CGS is Now Accepting Applications for the 2024-2025 Dean-in-Residence

CGS established the Dean-in-Residence (DIR) Program in 1983 to provide an opportunity for graduate deans to spend an academic year in our Washington, D.C. office. Each year one dean is selected from a CGS member institution to participate in the DIR program to engage with staff and in current projects.

To apply for the DIR position, please send President Suzanne Ortega a letter of interest, including mention of a specific project or projects you intend to pursue, and a curriculum vitae. Applications are accepted throughout the year and may be submitted one year in advance of your intended sabbatical year. We encourage early submission to ensure your institution has adequate time to coordinate sabbatical and administrative leaves. The one-year position begins August 1-July 31.

CGS provides a monthly stipend to assist with relocation costs; benefits are not included. Funding for this position depends upon support through either sabbatical or administrative leave from the applicant’s institution. We ask that you provide a letter of interest and CV for consideration.

Applications/inquiries should be sent to:

Suzanne Ortega, President
Council of Graduate Schools
One Dupont Circle, NW, Suite 230
Washington, D.C. 20036-1146
