particularly interested in identifying applicants with experience, both
lived and academic, in or with Indigenous/Native/First Nations communities.

*Program Assistant - STEM Ed PaCER*

The Program Assistant will work with the STEM Ed PaCER program, a
collaboration between Michigan State University (MSU), the Center for
Native Peoples and the Environment at the State University of New York’s
Environmental Science and Forestry (SUNY ESF) campus, and the Sustainable
Development Institute of the College of Menominee Nation (CMN). This
collaboration will build a diverse cohort of STEM (Science, Technology,
Engineering, and Mathematics) Education Postdoctoral Research Fellows (n=6)
who will train and work on Participatory and Community-Engaged Research
(PaCER) in the context of STEM education. The Program Assistant will be
responsible for the daily logistics of participant recruitment,
coordination across multiple organizations and individuals, and
collaboration with key partners including MSU’s Offices of the Associate
Provost for Undergraduate Education, Postdoctoral Affairs, and Outreach &
Engagement. Program Manager will interact with experts who will provide
disciplinary knowledge content to assist in the creation of education
materials and outputs including in-person workshops and may assist with
STEM Ed PaCER curriculum development and materials. This position will be
responsible for managing the interface between the multiple institutions,
experts, and Indigenous communities, including international communities
involved in this work. Tasks may include: managing calendars and assisting
with scheduling meetings, communicating with participants and stakeholders
at the multiple institutions, coordinating internally (program participants
with departments) and externally (institutions with communities),
facilitating appropriate permitting, assisting with dissemination of
materials, and identifying additional stakeholders to engage in the program.

Experience, both lived and academic, in or with Indigenous/Native/First
Nations communities, building and maintaining relationships with community
partners, project management, maintaining a cooperative and collaborative
environment and effectively managing conflict, interest in
community-engaged research and/or STEM education research are highly
desirable. This 2+-year project will offer fixed term support for this
position renewed annually based on satisfactory performance. An initial
commitment of two years is desirable. Salary will follow budgeted levels
and be commensurate with expected experience ($50,000-$60,000).
