The Graduate Center (GC) is the focal point for advanced teaching and research at the City University of New York (CUNY), the nation's largest urban public university. With over 35 doctoral and master's programs of the highest caliber, the Graduate Center fosters pioneering research and scholarship in the arts and sciences and prepares students for careers in universities and the private, nonprofit, and government sectors. The Graduate Center's commitment to research and scholarship for the public good is exemplified by its more than 30 centers, institutes, and initiatives, including its Advanced Science Research Center (ASRC), a 200,000 square-foot facility in upper Manhattan, designed to promote collaboration among scientists in five areas of global research and innovation: nanoscience, photonics, structural biology, neuroscience, and environmental sciences.
The Graduate Center (GC) benefits from highly ambitious and diverse students and alumni-who in turn teach hundreds of thousands of undergraduates every year. Through its public programs, the Graduate Center enhances New York City's intellectual and cultural life.
The Graduate Center's Teaching and Learning Center (TLC), founded in 2015, creates and connects opportunities for GC students to grow as educators and scholars within the nation's largest public urban university system. The TLC prepares new college instructors for their entry into the classroom, guides developing instructors as they refine their practices, and helps experienced instructors think through how to best apply what they've learned in the next stages of their careers, whether those careers be inside or outside of the classroom. The TLC is staffed by a combination of full- and part-time scholars from a range of disciplines, and collaborates closely with support units, research centers, and academic programs across the institution. All TLC programs share a commitment to intentional, responsive, and liberatory pedagogies that are designed to serve the population of students that CUNY has historically supported.
The Research Associate/Post-doctoral Fellow will build upon the Center's prior programing by developing new projects and producing original research about select aspects of teaching and learning in the contemporary academy. Qualified candidates will have a Ph.D. in the humanities, the social sciences, or the sciences, demonstrated excellence in teaching, and a research interest in pedagogy and the scholarship of teaching and learning, discipline-based education research, educational technology, or a related field. All applicants must have excellent research, writing, and communication skills.
The Research Associate will continue to develop their own scholarly work while also assisting the TLC with identifying and carrying out projects that support graduate students who teach at CUNY. Potential areas of research focus are open, but may include accessibility, emergent literacies, the impacts of artificial intelligence on learning, equity-oriented teaching, inclusive STEM instruction, peer learning, assessment, and more. The Research Associate will lead workshops, guide focused inquiry groups, contribute to the TLC's Critical AI Literacy Institute, and mentor graduate students. Additionally, the Research Associate will actively seek out and apply for grants. The position will work on TLC initiatives including but not limited to the Teach@CUNY Handbook, the Teach@CUNY Institutes, the TLC's workshop series, Focused Inquiry Groups, and Visible Pedagogy (the TLC's blog).
This position is an annual appointment with funding for two (2) years, with possibility of extension. The position will begin before the Fall 2026 semester, and report to the TLC Director.
Duties include but are not limited to:
- Contributes to the teaching and learning support offered by the TLC.
- Conducts independent research and engages in writing projects for publication.
- Develops and leads projects that theorize and explore faculty and professional development for graduate students in the contemporary university.
