invites nominations or applications for the position of founding <i>Director of
the USF School of Global Sustainability</i>. The University of South Florida
consists of the main research campus in Tampa, which includes USF Health, and
two regional campuses – USF Sarasota-Manatee and USF Polytechnic in
Lakeland. One of the nation’s top 63 public research universities, USF is
also one of 25 four-year public universities with very high research activity
that is designated as community engaged by the Carnegie Foundation for the
Advancement of Teaching. USF was awarded more than $380 million in research
contracts and grants in FY 2008/2009. The university serves more than 47,000
students and offers 224 degree programs at the undergraduate, graduate,
specialists, and doctoral levels, including the doctor of medicine, through its
11 colleges. USF is a member of the Big East Athletic Conference. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=Default><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>USF’s newly established
School of Global Sustainability is an innovative, state-of-the-art school,
created in response to overwhelming student and faculty interest, and central
to the University’s Strategic Plan. It is the only School of Global
Sustainability delivering a Masters of Arts degree in Global Sustainability at
this time. The School will offer a Masters degree in Global Sustainability with
an initial focus on water, delivered primarily through a distance-learning
curriculum combined with two periods of residency, one at USF and the second at
one of USF’s global partner universities. In addition, the School will
serve as an umbrella for university-wide academic initiatives in
sustainability, including certificate programs, a lecture series, post-doctoral
awards, and developing future concentrations for the Masters of Arts degree.
The School will be a hub for cross-college interdisciplinary research and the
director will be expected to work closely with the directors of the newly
established Office of Sustainability, the Office of Community Engagement, and
USF World. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
