Global Language and Outreach Fellow, Wesleyan University, Middletown, CT, USA. Deadline: open until filled; posted 18 March 2025.
Are you passionate about understanding other cultures and learning languages? Would you love to foster this same passion in students through creative programming? Do you believe that languages are one of the keys to intercultural understanding? Such traits are crucial for the success of Wesleyan’s Fries Center for Global Studies (FCGS), a unit committed to collaborating with all members of the Wesleyan community to advance the knowledge, language and intercultural skills, self-awareness, and empathy needed for responsible participation in our increasingly interdependent world.
Reporting to the Director of Language Resources and Technology, the Global Language and Outreach Fellow is responsible for developing, implementing, and managing high-impact initiatives that support campus internationalization through the lenses of language learning and multilingualism; and for promoting engagement with these initiatives through the FCGS’s social media and other channels.
The position works closely with colleagues in the Fries Center for Global Studies and collaborates with Wesleyan language faculty and Wesleyan student groups to further build culture- and language-based communities of practice across campus.
