University of Alaska
The University of Alaska Anchorage (UAA) is seeking a dedicated Project Director to lead and manage the College Assistance Migrant Program (CAMP). If you are enthusiastic about student support services we encourage you to apply.
The College Assistance Migrant Program (CAMP) has existed since 1972. CAMP assists students who are migratory or seasonal farmworkers – or children of such workers – enrolled in their first year of undergraduate studies at an Institution of Higher Education. The funding supports completion of the first year of studies. The program serves approximately 25 CAMP participants annually. The CAMP Project Director will oversee the planning, implementation, and evaluation of all program activities, ensuring compliance with grant requirements and fostering a supportive environment for CAMP participants. CAMP is housed under the Department of Student Engagement within UAA's Office of Student Affairs.
To thrive in this position, the applicant should enjoy working with varied student populations and helping underrepresented students find a successful path to higher education. The applicant should be equally able to navigate administrative tasks and 'zoom out' for leadership needs, budgeting, and evaluation activities. Having experience with developing student support services, and having familiarity with migrant and seasonal worker students will be a strong asset.
