• A master’s degree in Instructional Design, Computer Science, Educational Technology, or a related field (PhD preferred). Demonstrated success in leading cross-functional faculty development programs and academic initiatives in higher education. Proficiency with programming languages commonly used in AI contexts, with the ability to support their application in educational settings. A strong grasp of machine learning, natural language processing, and other core AI techniques relevant to teaching and learning. A talent for translating complex technical ideas into accessible, actionable strategies for faculty.
