    Position Summary
    Colorado State University seeks an outstanding person to serve as the Executive Director of the Scott Scholars Program. Reporting to the Dean of the Walter Scott, Jr. College of Engineering, the Executive Director leads a unique learning community of high achieving undergraduate engineering students with the goal of developing creative and technically strong leaders who will solve the grand challenges of today and the future.
    About the Program

    Established in 2017, the Scott Scholars Program is a community of outstanding undergraduate engineering students who are engaged in an enriched educational program focused on developing creative and leadership skills. This includes a suite of innovative curricular and co-curricular experiential learning opportunities that range from company-sponsored projects to cutting-edge research to community and civic engagement. The Program is designed to complement and enhance the world-class engineering education that all students receive from Colorado State University.
    Scott Scholars are selected from the top high school graduates from Colorado who have been admitted to the College of Engineering at Colorado State University. Each Scholar receives generous and substantial financial support for their entire undergraduate education. The Program currently enrolls 94 students, with plans (and resources) to grow to 130. In addition to creating transformational educational experience for the Scholars, the Program has a broad and positive impact on the entire Walter Scott, Jr. College of Engineering. Its scholarships enable the College to recruit and retain the best students from Colorado, year after year. It also supports the development and deployment of innovative new programs that benefit all students.
    The Scott Scholars Program is made possible by the generous support of the Suzanne & Walter Scott Foundation. Walter Scott, Jr., an alumnus of the College, believed that “Helping young people with their education is one of the finest investments we can possibly make as a society.” He has supported students to attend Colorado State University since 1983.
    About the Position

We are looking for an extraordinary individual who will further elevate the Program through expanded engagement with external partners to develop students’ skills in leadership and engineering excellence. We are also seeking someone who will enhance the scholars’ innovation and design thinking skills through closer partnership with the CSU Institute of Entrepreneurship, the local and regional startup ecosystem, and potentially the creation of a living-learning community.
