The Melbourne Graduate School of Education (MGSE) is a global leader in teaching and education research, offering challenging courses, world-changing research and contemporary learning spaces. The Melbourne Centre for the Study of Higher Education (Melbourne CSHE) is part of MGSE.

About the role

Located within the Melbourne CSHE, the LH Martin award programs and related research aim to serve the tertiary education sectors in Australia.

You will primarily lead the program and subject co-ordination for the Master of Tertiary Education Management and its nested awards, and promote its online growth and development.

As the successful applicant, you will

• Lead the Emerging Leaders and Managers Program (eLAMP) which has been reviewed and updated in 2019;
• Participate in other Melbourne CSHE activities, such as contract research, consultancy and bespoke programs, and the organisation of conferences and seminars on a regular basis;
• Be familiar with current developments and policy debates relating to tertiary education management and policy, nationally and internationally;
• Contribute to the research performance of the Centre and the MGSE through publications and/or the ability to attract research funding; and
• Contribute to the community through involvement in professional associations.
