Position description
The University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) invites applications for the position of Executive Director of the Yardi Scholars for Environmental Justice program. Funded by Yardi, the program is a four-year, cohort-based, experiential education and financial aid program designed to support incoming first generation and low income students. Incoming UCSB undergraduates accepted into the Yardi Scholars for Environmental Justice program will receive full, four-year scholarships and will participate in curricular and co-curricular experiences that foster the knowledge and skills associated with leadership and effective environmental changemaking.
The Yardi Scholars for Environmental Justice program will ramp up over a period of four years. The first cohort of circa 18-20 students will apply for the program in the Spring of 2025 and will arrive at UCSB that fall quarter. A new cohort will be enrolled each subsequent year. The program will reach full capacity in the 2028/2029 academic year.
The Yardi program is structured as a four-year learning experience. In year one, Yardi scholars are immersed in possibilities for exploring questions and creating solutions to environmental challenges from multiple disciplinary perspectives through a fall quarter seminar, led by the Executive Director and featuring UCSB faculty guest lecturers. In year two, Yardi Scholars begin to see ideas in action as they work with one of many campus student organizations committed to environmental action. The Executive Director will support the Yardi Scholars in identifying and reflecting on their extracurricular participation in campus organizations. Year three is the centerpiece of the program. The Yardi Scholars will undertake multidisciplinary team projects as part of a practicum that runs throughout the academic year. Between 4-5 project teams will work on environmental solutions for clients from the Central Coast community. The Executive Director will recruit potential clients and support the project teams. In year four, students conclude their Yardi Scholars experience and their UC Santa Barbara educations, honing their environmental solutions specialization via an undergraduate research or internship experience of their choice.
The Executive Director will work with the Yardi program faculty directors to develop and coordinate all aspects of the program. The Executive Director will be responsible for: 1) Managing the program recruitment and application process; 2) Providing direct mentorship and academic guidance for the cohorts of Yardi Scholars throughout their time at UCSB and coordinating peer mentoring; 3) Developing and leading three courses (seminars and project practicums per year related to the Yardi Scholars for Environmental Justice program; 4) Coordinating an annual retreat; 5) Leading program communication; and 6) Supporting program administration and evaluation.
The successful candidate will have experience collaboratively creating and administering a dynamic program, experience mentoring undergraduates from first generation and low income backgrounds, subject matter expertise related to environmental justice, and postsecondary teaching experience.
