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"

  • Finding Students Where They Live

    Dr. Brian C. Mitchell

    I had lunch in Boston last week with Rob Hutter and Michael Staton, partners at Learn Capital, based near San Francisco. Both are extremely creative, committed and entrepreneurial thinkers about the intersection of ed tech and higher education. The conversation ranged widely as time flew by. What struck me most during it, however, was a theme that has repeated itself in a number of conversations I've participated in over the past few months.

    Twenty First Century Scholar

    Recent days have been laden with all kinds of news items that challenge our notion of what college is. Take the news from the California legislature’s introduction of a bill that would require state-sponsored colleges and universities to accept credits from MOOCs and other alternative low-priced avenues of education.

It means rethinking what a college is.”
