Stanford Master of Liberal Arts Program

Stanford’s Master of Liberal Arts (MLA) program is a part‑time graduate degree program for adults. Now in its 35th year, the program has 90 ongoing students, and 368 alumni. Through rigorous, graduate‑level study, the MLA program aims to help students develop the intellectual methodology they need to engage in the contemporary debate, to cultivate their ability to find connections among different areas of human thought, to acquire the tools to conduct original research, and to pursue a life of ideas.

The MLA Program is seeking a Marketing & Communications Coordinator to join our small, collaborative team. Reporting to the Associate Dean and Director, this role will be responsible for creating and implementing the Program’s marketing plan: promoting the program to potential applicants, thinking creatively about potential sources of applicants, increasing the visibility of the program on campus and in the community, and ensuring clear, up‑to‑date communications across our website, marketing, and program materials.

The ideal candidate will be able to think creatively about promoting our unique program for non‑traditional students and will bring excellent writing skills, sound judgment, and demonstrated marketing and design skills to the position.
