The primary responsibilities include teaching early childhood teacher education courses, supervising practicum and / or residency experiences, assisting in program coordination, conducting practice scholarship, and engaging in service.

The Feinstein College of Education is a community of educational scholars, leaders, and practitioners with a shared commitment to enhancing equity and inclusion within and outside of schools, bridging research and practice, and serving diverse and underserved populations.
The Feinstein College of Education (COEDU) at the University of Rhode Island offers a fully accredited Early Childhood Education (ECE) program that leads to a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree and initial teaching certification for Pre-K through Grade 2 in Rhode Island. The Program highlights early childhood (birth to age 8) as essential and uses a holistic framework to support young children's learning and development. Experiential learning represents the core of the program as students obtain practical experience through clinical work in elementary schools throughout RI and at URI's NAEYC-accredited Child Development Centers in Kingston and Providence. Both centers provide high quality lab-school experiences and serve as both practicum and teaching residency placements for Prek-2 certification. The successful candidate will participate as a core faculty member in the pre-service early childhood teacher education program and may have opportunities to mentor master's and doctoral level students in the COEDU graduate programs.
