Search Tips

Here are some useful tips to help you with your keyword searches. Once you've run a keyword search, you can apply filters (job category, institution, location). You can also browse jobs by simply selecting a filter.

Type your word(s) or phrase(s) into the Keyword box. Searches are not case sensitive, so you don’t need to capitalize. There are several ways to construct your keyword search:

ENTER ONE WORD

Your search will return every job posting containing that word.
Example: architecture

ENTER A PHRASE

Enclose a phrase in quotation marks to return only job postings containing that exact phrase.
Example: “Medieval history” or "tenure track"

MULTIPLE KEYWORDS OR PHRASES

If you enter several words/phrases, your search will return only job postings containing all of the words/phrases.

Example: tenure track medieval history

SEARCH TIPS

Use the plus (+) symbol to include words and/or the minus (-) symbol to exclude words

Examples:

business +accounting -marketing

student +services -admissions

Enter several words/phrases separated by the word OR to find every job posting containing at least one of the words/phrases

Examples:

"tenure track" OR tenured

"distance education" OR "online learning"

  • The Net Generation and the Promise of Traditional Education

    Kate Murray

    The Net Generation is a name for children born from the late 1990s to the present day.  Net Generation babies are born into a world where Internet, cell phones, tablets, and online learning are commonplace.  In fact, these children won’t remember the time when cell phones were new and the Motorola Razr was the hottest phone on the market.  The intense integration of the Internet into every aspect of the Net Gen’s lives suggests a rise in online education and a decline of the traditional four-year college experience.  However, certain key characteristics of the Net Gen lead me to believe that traditional colleges will continue attracting the vast majority of this generation.

  • 20 Things 20 Year Olds Don't Get

    Forbes

    I started Docstoc in my 20’s, made the cover of one of those cliché “20 Under 20” lists, and today I employ an amazing group of 20-somethings. Call me a curmudgeon, but at 34, how I came up seems so different from what this millennial generation expects.

    Good HQ

    The college application process can be pretty overwhelming, and overworked high school guidance counselors often don't always have the time to give individual students the personalized coaching they need. So where can students get help without hiring a private college adviser? A free Facebook app, Acceptly, wants to "take the guesswork out of getting into college" by coaching students through the process.

  • Student Loans and American Skills: Two Different Reactions

    NASFAA

    "We live in a global economy where the success of a nation is dependent on the ability to train a highly skilled work force," William Spriggs, chief economist to the AFL-CIO, writes in Diverse: Issues in Higher Education. "As a nation, we are facing the same crossroads faced in 1958, but what a difference 55 years makes in American policy response. Rather than double down our investment on American children and give them every advantage to pull our nation forward to meet the challenges ahead, we would rather 'outsource' the skill development and 'import' the talent. ... So, when we are more concerned about keeping the tax rates low for corporations that keep their money offshore and hide behind foreign tax-haven borders than in creating policies to hire our own children, it says even more. And when our response to a skills shortage is to import people rather than develop our children, we say even more. Two different times, two different policy reactions say a lot about us." NASFAA's "F

  • If You Want Students to Engage on Social Media, Offer Up Some Neon Swag

    BostInno

    College students come running when they hear the word “free.” You’ve seen them weigh themselves down at career fairs, shoveling pencils, pens and caramel candies into their pockets by the handful. That said, Suffolk made an insanely smart move when they needed to lure the incoming Class of 2017 over to their social media channels: they bribed the fresh-faced freshmen with some neon-colored swag.
