Drake University is seeking interested faculty to apply for the DU England: Harlaxton Faculty-in-Residence position for Fall 2024.  Drake is developing semester-long, cohort-model study abroad programs where a Drake faculty member travels abroad with a group of students teaching and supporting the program in various other capacities.

Faculty will teach two 3-credit undergraduate courses meeting an AOI and taking advantage of the program location. One course will be a lower-level intro course with broad appeal, with the second course being upper-level. Drake students on the program will be required to take one of the two courses.  As you are thinking about what courses you could offer, consider what course offerings would allow for a cohort of students from your department to study abroad and stay on track for graduation.

This is an opportunity for you to teach and live abroad in a 100-room Victorian Manor constructed in 1831, with magnificent gardens, spectacular architecture, and beautiful woodlands. Set in 300 acres of beautiful countryside in the heart of England, Harlaxton allows you to enjoy the British Midlands with the ability to be in London in about an hour.  Harlaxton’s central location in Lincolnshire also brings other major cities and towns within easy reach, allowing academic and culturally important sites to be visited in a day out or weekend away.

The DU England: Harlaxton Faculty-in-Residence application is live through Qualtrics for Fall 2024. To learn more about this opportunity including eligibility, compensation, responsibilities, and to apply, please go to: https://drake.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_b3N99sIS5gq8Kge
