Au will fill the position through June 20, 2024, during a search to replace Dr. Ed Buendia, the current dean who is retiring from UW Bothell at the end of July. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Au has been a faculty member at UW Bothell since 2010 and served as the interim dean of diversity and equity for the campus for two years. He is also an editorial board member of Rethinking Schools. His academic interests broadly encompass critical education theory and teaching for social justice. More specifically, his research focuses on educational equity, high-stakes testing, curriculum theory, educational policy studies and social studies education. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m looking forward to supporting the various initiatives we have in motion,\u201d Au said. \u201cThese include expanding our undergraduate offering, moving more of our graduate programs online, working on pipelines to increase the ranks of teachers of color, and reimagining our school and district partnerships in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Noted Dr. Kristin G. Esterberg, chancellor for UW Bothell, \u201cWayne is well-regarded among his colleagues in the School of Educational Studies and across the campus. His extraordinary connections in the greater community of the Pacific Northwest and in academia \u2014 particularly among those involved in diversity, equity and inclusion work \u2014 will support his leadership of the school.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Buend\u00eda joined UW Bothell in 2016. As dean, he secured more than $480,000 in grants to advance equity initiatives, implemented a lean process that allowed the school to move to a digital platform for records management, and recruited new outstanding SES faculty to UW Bothell. He also co-led a successful strategic planning process for the campus that resulted in <a href=\"http:\/\/we.discover.uw.edu\/NTI3LUFIUi0yNjUAAAGBL6m1jnxmeV_VCYqJKSREF_ZqGtHl6da5gQYrciK1NfK4KKzC5D6jcy8wtcZFUlff3XwOSK4=\">Expanding Access, Achieving Excellence<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Wayne Au will serve as the interim dean for two years effective Aug. 1.
