Santa Clara University

Dean of the School of Engineering

Santa Clara University seeks an innovative, collaborative, and engaged leader to serve as Dean of the School of Engineering. The Dean will be a relationship-oriented academic leader with a deep commitment to excellence in teaching, research, and service and to the values of a Jesuit, Catholic education. Santa Clara offers an education that invites students to develop every dimension of their humanity, to work toward social justice and a more humane, just, and sustainable world, and to engage with the high-tech innovations of the surrounding community.

The new Dean will lead the School in the co-creation of a vision for the future, inspire a strong sense of community grounded in a commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging, and bolster support for research and graduate education while maintaining an unwavering commitment to exceptional undergraduate education. In addition, the new Dean will lead a strong and broad external relations effort to engage alumni, donors, and corporate and community leaders, taking full advantage of the rich opportunities afforded by its Silicon Valley location. This work will require the new Dean to serve as a passionate spokesperson, advocate persuasively for the School, and bring a genuine enthusiasm for collaboration and partnership building to this work. The Dean must also provide exceptional internal leadership to ensure robust infrastructure and a high level of operational support to meet the needs of faculty, students, and staff.
