Director-Management

Michigan State University(MSU) • East Lansing, MI • 1d ago

Position Summary

The College of Engineering at Michigan State University (MSU) invites applications for the Director of Student Access, Opportunity, and Engagement (AOE). Our student support team furthers the college's core values of student access, professional development, inclusion, and excellence. We provide programming, community building, and academic support as a unit, and through collaboration with faculty, staff, and students to promote both curricular and co-curricular success.

This is a full-time, 12-month fixed-term position, renewable annually based on positive performance reviews, continued funding, and mutual agreement.

As Director, you will provide overall direction and management of programming, organize a summer math-intensive program, assist with developing proposals for revenue generation, prepare reports, teach and facilitate orientation classes, and manage team members. You will also collaborate with program offices across the university, faculty, staff, students, administrators, and corporate partners to create opportunities and build linkages.

What You'll Do

Lead and collaborate with staff to support and retain our diverse student body.

Design and implement programming that fosters belonging and community.

Provide strong management and supervisory leadership.

What We're Looking For

A Master's degree in engineering, education, student affairs, or a closely related field (required at the time of appointment).

At least three years of proven success in management and leadership.

Experience designing inclusive programs that strengthen student engagement.

Exceptional interpersonal, organizational, and communication skills.

Why Join Us

This is your chance to shape the student experience at one of the nation's top engineering colleges. As Director of Student Access, Opportunity, and Engagement, you'll lead programs that bring students together, strengthen their academic journey, and create opportunities that launch careers.

You won't just be managing initiatives---you'll be building a community. You'll work with motivated students, collaborative colleagues, and industry partners who are eager to connect talent with real-world impact. From summer bridge programs to professional development and corporate engagement, your work will have a direct impact on how students grow, succeed, and thrive at MSU.

If you're ready to bring ideas to life, lead with energy, and see the results of your work every day in the lives of students, this role offers the platform to do it.

Hybrid Work Arrangement

While this position offers the potential for a hybrid work arrangement, the expectation is that the successful candidate will maintain a predominantly in-person office presence. Work arrangements will be determined in collaboration with the Associate Dean, taking into account both the employee's needs and the unit's requirements.
