The posting

Minerva University is a non-profit, U.S.-accredited institution of higher education that prepares students to become innovators and global leaders in various disciplines. In June 2025, Minerva was ranked #1 most innovative university in the world for the fourth year in a row by World’s Universities with Real Impact (WURI), an organization whose partners include the United Nations Institute for Training and Research. We have reinvented higher education at every level, from how we equalize access to talented students from around the world, how we leverage the possibilities of global immersion, and how we teach. We are well known for our undergraduate program where students live together in residence halls, traveling to different cities around the world over their four years of study. We teach using a web-based platform that supports real-time, synchronous seminars (ranging from 15-19 students) with high levels of student-faculty interaction. All Minerva classes are seminars, not lecture courses, and use active learning to help students learn to think critically and creatively as well as to communicate and interact effectively with others. The majority of our students are undergraduates pursuing four-year degrees. Minerva offers a Master of Science in Decision Analysis, as well as other programming for professional learners, which we are actively looking to scale over the upcoming few years.
