Macquarie University seeking PACE International Program Coordinator

05 January 2011

Macquarie University's Participation and Community Engagement (PACE) Initiative is seeking an International Program Coordinator.

The PACE International initiative is an exciting new component of the University's strategic direction, emphasising the University's commitment to excellence in research, teaching and learning, and community engagement.

The PACE International Program Coordinator is responsible for developing and coordinating the full project cycle for the PACE International Program in collaboration with Australian Volunteers International (AVI), and other internal and external stakeholders.

Through experiential learning activities students will have opportunities to apply their classroom learning to real world situations while developing skills that employers value. PACE International, jointly managed by Australian Volunteers International and Macquarie, is specifically designed to provide these opportunities for students who want to travel overseas. From 2012, a PACE unit will be a core requirement in a majority of undergraduate degree programs at Macquarie.

 

Students will have the opportunity to put the skills and knowledge they have been learning in the classroom into practice, and to make a contribution to real world projects, improving the wellbeing of people and the planet.

 

Please note applications for this position close on 9 January 2011.
