. Please do not apply through Smith College's applicant portal.
Smith College, one of the nation's most distinguished liberal arts colleges for women and a lifelong champion of transformative education, seeks an accomplished and visionary leader to serve as its next Vice President for Equity and Inclusion (VPEI).
Reporting directly to President Sarah Willie-LeBreton and serving as a member of the senior leadership team, the VPEI will lead the Office for Equity and Inclusion and strategically partner with those across campus who build community at Smith, providing thought leadership and material support to their work.
Smith educates approximately 2,500 undergraduates and 300 graduate students from nearly every state and 67 countries, supported by an 8:1 student-faculty ratio, an open curriculum, a celebrated residential house system, and the intellectual resources of the Five College Consortium. With an endowment of approximately $2.7 billion, the College possesses the means and the will to realize its highest aspirations-chief among them to ensure that Smith's longstanding commitment to equity, belonging, and justice is fully embedded in its culture and everyday practice.
The next VPEI will shepherd initiatives (or programming) that foster a sense of dignity, belonging, and mutual respect across campus; nurture trust among administration, faculty, staff, and students; broaden the college's intersectional lens; and lead the campus in creating spaces where deep listening and respectful disagreement and dialogue strengthens community.

With deep expertise in architecture, design, and construction, along with strengths in engineering, computing, emerging technologies, and management, Wentworth offers interdisciplinary, experiential education that prepares students to lead in a rapidly evolving world. Through immersive learning and strong industry partnerships, the university delivers a high return on investment while empowering graduates to drive innovation and create meaningful societal impact today and into the future.Founded in 1904 to “furnish education in the mechanical arts,” Wentworth has grown into one of the nation's premier STEM and design universities. Nearly 3,900 undergraduate students and nearly 250 graduate students now pursue degrees across five schools: • Architecture and Design • Computing and Data Science • Engineering • Management • Sciences and HumanitiesWentworth's academic pathways are designed for flexibility, ranging from accelerated three-year degrees to 3+1 and 4+1 bachelor's/master's programs, as well as part-time, hybrid, and online study.The hallmark of a Wentworth education is its cooperative education program, one of the most comprehensive in the country. Every undergraduate completes two co-op semesters, applying classroom knowledge to real-world settings and building professional networks before graduation. This model produces exceptional results: 91 percent of graduates are employed or in graduate school within six months, 97 percent work in their field or major, and the median starting salary is more than $72,000. 37 percent of the Class of 2023 were hired directly by their co-op employers.Wentworth's distinctive approach and commitment to student success have fueled growing national recognition. The university earned the top ranking in Massachusetts from The New York Times when measuring earnings, mobility, and diversity, was highlighted by the Carnegie Foundation as one of only five STEM institutions with “Higher Access, Higher Earnings,” and has been recognized in Forbes' Top Colleges list. The School of Engineering has also seen steady gains in U.S. News & World Report rankings for both “Best Value Schools” and “Undergraduate Engineering Programs.”Wentworth's trajectory is guided by its 2025-2030 Strategic Plan, which sets forth a bold vision to make the university a national destination for STEM and design education. This vision builds on Wentworth's longstanding tradition of applied, experiential learning while positioning the institution to prepare graduates who thrive in a technology-driven, globally connected economy.The university's financial and institutional strength supports this ambition. With an annual operating budget of $155 million, an endowment valued at $161 million, and more than $40 million in new philanthropic commitments secured in FY25, Wentworth continues to attract strong external investment in its mission.In 2024, Moody's affirmed the institution's credit rating of Baa1 with a stable outlook.Located on a 31-acre campus in Boston's Fenway neighborhood, Wentworth provides students with modern residence halls, a vibrant library and learning commons, and more than 60 specialized labs and studios. Design students benefit from an unmatched 1:1 student-to-studio ratio. In 2024, the university unveiled a 10-year Institutional Master Plan that will transform the physical campus with three new academic buildings, three new residence halls, and expanded green spaces. When completed, the plan will increase housing capacity from 2,200 to 3,900 students, while also adding a new athletics field house and doubling the campus's green space to advance sustainability and resiliency.Wentworth's story is also defined by its enduring mission of access and innovation. From training servicemembers during World War I to becoming coeducational in 1972, to launching Accelerate, the university's Innovation & Entrepreneurship Center in 2012, Wentworth has consistently adapted to meet the needs of students and society. Supported by philanthropy, programs such as the Accelerate Co-op for Entrepreneurs (ACE) give today's students the opportunity to launch businesses during their co-ops.Through its strong academic programs, nationally recognized co-op model, industry partnerships, and strategic investments, Wentworth Institute of Technology stands as a university of opportunity and innovation - preparing graduates who are not only ready to succeed in their fields but also to shape the world around them.**Executive Leadership:****Mark A. Thompson, Ph.D.** became the fifth president of Wentworth Institute of Technology on June 1, 2019.

His accomplishments include:• Building high-performing academic and administrative leadership teams and embedding inclusive excellence as a core institutional priority, including the creation of Wentworth's first vice president for Inclusive Excellence.• Expanding academic innovation by restructuring academic divisions and launching new programs such as Applied Artificial Intelligence, Robotics Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, and graduate offerings in Mechanical Engineering.• Enhancing student success and support through initiatives such as the Success Studio and expanded Center for Wellness, and strengthening high school-to-career pathways in partnership with Boston Public Schools.• Securing transformational resources, including more than $40 million in commitments in FY25, as well as the $10 million Advancing Student Access and Potential (ASAP) scholarship campaign and significant external funding to support labs, equipment, and scholarships.• Setting a bold vision for the future through the 2025-2030 Strategic Plan, which positions Wentworth as a national destination for STEM and design education, grounded in applied, experiential learning and innovation.Through these efforts, Dr. Thompson has positioned Wentworth as a national leader in applied, experiential education and as a university of opportunity whose graduates are in high demand for their skills, experience, and mindset.**The Role:**Wentworth is seeking a new Vice President for University Advancement to lead the development of a comprehensive campaign, provide robust leadership, secure major gifts, and oversee the annual fund as well as build out a planned giving program.
