The University of California, Berkeley seeks a visionary and courageous leader and accomplished scholar with a commitment to social and racial justice to serve as the next Dean of the Goldman School of Public Policy.
Founded in 1969, the Goldman School of Public Policy (GSPP) is built on several distinctive qualities: a strong quantitative core, an analytic “tool kit,” committed faculty, a strong sense of community, and hands-on experience. GSPP has enjoyed preeminent standing on the strength of its faculty, the excellence of its programs, and the achievements of its alumni. Recognizing GSPP’s outstanding teaching and research, US News and World Report consistently ranks it as a top tier school for policy analysis.
The next Dean will provide strategic and intellectual leadership for the School, while fully realizing synergies within the School and across UC Berkeley. The Dean will promote an institutional culture rooted in diversity, equity, and inclusion, and will strengthen the School through philanthropic support, strategic partnerships, and innovative ways of diversifying revenue.
The successful candidate will have a record of scholarly achievement that merits a tenured appointment at UC Berkeley at the rank of full Professor and will demonstrate commitment to excellence in the study, teaching, and practice of public policy. The new Dean will demonstrate a record of responsible organizational leadership; success in advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion; evidence of, or potential for success in, fundraising; and provide a strong and influential voice for the need to transform our society.
Inquiries, nominations, and applications are invited. Applicants must submit a CV, preferably with a letter of interest, via WittKieffer’s candidate portal or by email. For fullest consideration, materials should be received by October 30, 2020. An earned terminal degree, or the international equivalent, by the time of application is required.
