York University Dean, Faculty of Education First Nations peoples have lived on this part of Turtle Island for millennia, stewarding the land, the water and all that contributes to life in this region. Today, the culture and presence of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples enrich the lands and people of this territory. More than two centuries ago, the Mississauga people welcomed settlers to this territory, providing sustenance and engaging in trade and commerce. Today, York University campuses are located on the Toronto Purchase Treaty No. 13 lands and territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and the lands of the Anishinabek of the Williams Treaties First Nations. Our campuses are also situated on the traditional territories of the Huron-Wendat and the Haudenosaunee. Treaty history is foundational, and it is our collective responsibility to honour the land, as we honour and respect those who have gone before us, those who are here and those who have yet to come. We are grateful for the opportunity to be learning, working and thriving on this land, and we commit to learn the truth and be active in the process of reconciliation. As York University embarks on its next chapter of growth and impact, the University invites applications and nominations for the position of Dean, Faculty of Education. This pivotal moment calls for bold, globally-minded leadership at an institution recognized for advancing positive change. Canada’s 3rd largest university, York provides scholars and students with access to outstanding research and an exceptional teaching and learning environment. With three campuses in the Greater Toronto Area—one of the most vibrant and multicultural regions in the world—York hosts a diverse and dynamic community of over 53,000 students and nearly 7,000 faculty and staff. Reflecting both its scale and ambition, in recent years the University opened its Markham Campus, unveiled The Joan and Martin Goldfarb Gallery at Keele, and is advancing its School of Medicine; the first in Canada with a core mission to train community-focused primary care physicians, the medical school is set to welcome its first cohort in September 2028. York has also been building on its strong research foundation across all disciplines, with large-scale funded projects, award-winning scholars and groundbreaking research with transformative, real-world impact. The University takes special pride in its distinctive progressive, forward-looking ethos summed up in its motto, Tentanda Via: the way must be tried. One of the top Faculties of Education in Canada—consistently ranked among the top 10 nationally and top 250 globally—the Faculty of Education at York is a leading contributor to teacher education in the country. It is recognized for preparing future educators while advancing a bold vision of education grounded in social justice, decolonization, diversity, equity and inclusion—principles embedded across its teaching, research, and community engagement. Its academic offerings are comprehensive and distinctive, and include the Bachelor of Education program, the Bachelor of Arts in Educational Studies program, and a range of graduate programs at the master’s, doctoral, and diploma levels. The Faculty also offers programs unique to the Faculty, such as the Waaban Indigenous Teacher Education program, the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (DHH) Teacher Education program, and other innovative programs and community-engaged professional learning initiatives. Instruction and learning opportunities are offered across multiple York University campuses in both English and French, and newly renovated spaces in Winters College further support learning opportunities and collaboration among students, faculty, and community partners. A hub of impactful and highly productive research, the Faculty is home to a dynamic scholarly community whose work shapes educational policy and practice locally and globally. Faculty members have achieved notable success in securing major competitive research funding, including Tri-Council grants, and are leading large-scale, collaborative initiatives that address complex educational and social challenges and drive systems-level change. The Faculty includes two Canada Research Chairs (a Tier 1 CRC in Young Lives, Education and Global Good and a Tier 2 CRC in Disability Studies in Education) and distinguished endowed positions such as the Jean Augustine Chair in Education, Community & Diaspora and the Koschitzky Family Chair in Jewish Teacher Education. These strengths underscore the Faculty’s leadership in producing rigorous, impactful research that will continue to shape the future of education. About the Role and Qualifications Reporting to the Provost & Vice-President Academic, the Dean of Education serves as the Faculty’s principal academic and administrative officer and is a member of the University’s senior leadership team. The Dean will champion the Faculty’s vision and values, advancing excellence in research, teaching and community engagement while supporting an outstanding student experience at the undergraduate, graduate and professional levels.
