We have news to share about an upcoming change in leadership at the Tsongas Industrial History Center in Lowell, MA. After 33 years of dedicated service to the TIHC, Sheila Kirschbaum will retire at the end of this school year. Sheila has held various positions at the TIHC, starting as a Museum Teacher in our first spring season in 1992, and then becoming Project Assistant in 1996, School Liaison in 1999, Assistant Director in 2010, and Director in 2011. We will greatly miss her guidance, vision, and knowledge of the TIHC. While there will be several chances to celebrate and thank Sheila over the next few months, we do want to note that the Director of Educational Partnerships position (which includes the TIHC partnership) is now posted. View the full job description and application process on the UMass Lowell HR website. Please help us spread the word about this important position.

The College of Fine Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences (FAHSS) at UMass Lowell is home to a variety of unique initiatives and programs that engage PK-12 schools/districts and community colleges, including those offered through The Tsongas Industrial History Center (TIHC), Jumpstart, and the college’s Early College and Career Pathways with particular emphasis on the School of Education’s educator pathways.

The College seeks a Director to oversee the TIHC and this growing portfolio in its emerging Center for Educational Partnerships. In collaboration with the FAHSS Dean’s Office, TIHC staff, and other school and community-based partners, the Director coordinates Center initiatives that serve PK-14 students & educators and provide a pipeline to UML degree programs. The position offers the unique opportunity to work across a range of educational contexts including the Tsongas Industrial History Center, whereby the Director works in and with Lowell National Historical to offer place-based, hands-on informal, humanities and STEM education programs.
