Especially competitive candidates will have a PhD in international affairs or a related field and experience teaching in a student-centered program at the graduate level. Successful candidates are also expected to embody the MSFS values of leadership, ethics, creativity, service, and inclusion.  This position requires working collaboratively with other faculty and staff across multiple units and programs, the ability to work independently and in teams and to lead teams effectively, and the flexibility to make adjustments as program needs evolve.
