Wentworth Institute of Technology invites applications, expressions of interest, and nominations of candidates in its search for the next Dean of the School of Computing & Data Science (SCDS).
The Institute
Wentworth Institute of Technology was founded “to furnish education in the mechanical arts.” Today, just under 4000 undergraduates pursue associate and bachelor’s degrees in 23 STEM, design, and management disciplines across five schools, including Architecture & Design, Computing & Data Science, Engineering, Management, and Sciences & Humanities. In addition to offering certificate programs, graduate students may pursue 13 master’s degrees. The hallmark of a Wentworth education is the robust co-op program, featuring hands-on experiences that offer depth of learning, career-relevant experiences, and valuable networking opportunities. Over 38% of the class of 2022 were offered post-graduate full-time employment by their co-op employer. Professionally relevant education is uniquely woven into the fabric of Wentworth, where students are encouraged to make connections across disciplines, in classrooms, labs, and as active participants in industry. Among the Class of 2022, 95% were employed or in graduate school within six months of graduation; of those employed, 97% reported working in their desired field or major while earning a median starting salary of $70,020.
Wentworth Institute of Technology earned the top spot in the latest New York Times’ college ranking when prioritizing earnings, economic mobility, and economic diversity among colleges in Massachusetts.
