The responsibilities of the position will be split between the EPICS Program and the hiring School in the College of Engineering. EPICS is a service-learning design program in which teams of students partner with local and global community organizations to address human, community, and environmental needs. EPICS was founded at Purdue University in Fall 1995 and has been adopted at more than 40 universities and colleges. Purdue is the home of the EPICS University Consortium -a collaborative network of universities that freely share ideas and experiences to support program development. The EPICS model has also been extended to pre-college education, with over 100 middle and high schools offering EPICS courses supported by the EPICS Program. The successful candidate will serve as Director of EPICS, providing strategic leadership in developing, disseminating and supporting service-learning models that engage students in engineering and computing-based design projects that meet the needs of their communities for all three aspects of the EPICS program: the Purdue courses at the West Lafayette and Indianapolis locations, the University Consortium, and the K-12 Program. This role includes fostering innovation in engineering education, expanding partnerships with community, corporate, higher education, foundation, and philanthropic organizations, securing external funding, and promoting interdisciplinary collaboration across campus and beyond. Responsibilities associated with the hiring School of Engineering can include teaching, engagement, scholarship, and service. Boiler Up!
