Civilian Career Paths

Career associations are editorial assessments of the cited evidence, not an official crosswalk unless the evidence explicitly says so. O*NET supplies civilian occupation information, not proof of a military match. Related experience does not confer civilian qualifications. Tasks and tools below describe civilian work, not military training.

Education Administrators, Postsecondary

Direct supervision of junior faculty and liaison between senior academic leadership and rotating and civilian faculty transfer to academic department administration.

How to prepare: Compare your documented education and faculty-leadership experience with the appointment criteria for an academic department administration opening. Entry typically requires a master's degree, although some small institutions accept a bachelor's; dean and provost appointments often require a Ph.D., and employers generally prefer related college-administration experience.

What the civilian work involves
  • Direct, coordinate, and evaluate the activities of personnel, including support staff engaged in administering academic institutions, departments, or alumni organizations.
Civilian tools and software (examples)
  • Microsoft Office software
  • Microsoft Outlook
