About James Madison College
Founded in 1967, JMC was established with a visionary goal: to blend the intimate qualities of a small college with the resources and opportunities of a large research university. Our focus is on public affairs, deeply rooted in the liberal arts, and we have been a leader in this field since our inception. At JMC, students experience the best of both worlds. They live and learn in designated residence halls, like Case Hall, which not only houses students but also faculty offices, academic advisors, classrooms, seminar rooms, the South Pointe dining hall, and the JMC library. This immersive environment fosters a learning experience that goes beyond traditional classroom walls.
Our students are inherently engaged and take part in a wide array of activities that complement their coursework and career aspirations. Many participate in extracurricular activities and leadership opportunities through various clubs, organizations, and events within both the college and the larger university community. James Madison College is an inclusive, undergraduate residential learning community dedicated to innovative teaching, research, and engagement with public affairs on both domestic and global scales. We promote diverse perspectives and critical thinking, empowering our students to pursue equity and justice through public service and civic participation.
JMC offers undergraduate education in public affairs and international relations through four distinct majors. Our courses draw insights from various social sciences and related fields, including political science, economics, literature, sociology, philosophy, and history. This multidisciplinary approach prepares students for diverse careers with a strong sense of social awareness and global responsibility. Our graduates go on to pursue impactful careers in government, politics, business, education, and human services, with many continuing their education at top graduate and law schools. With approximately 1,200 students, JMC prides itself on offering inclusive and interdisciplinary learning environments. Faculty members work closely with students in small classes, typically with fewer than 50 students, ensuring personalized and impactful educational experiences.
The JMC Associate Director of Development will report to the Dean of the College of James Madison and the Senior Director of Development for the College of Social Science, providing a clear avenue for mentorship and partnership with many of the other social science units at Michigan State University and a supportive team of other development officers.
