Engaged Learning
The Department of Housing and Department of Residence Life are newly-formed Cleveland State University departments previously managed by an outside vendor. This shift to internal departments has been designed to better support our students and enhance the overall residential experience. By building a dedicated team of housing professionals within CSU , the University aims to strengthen services that promote student matriculation, engagement, and long-term success.
These Housing and Residence Life roles will primarily support on-campus first year students residing in the newly-renovated Fenn Tower and second year students in Euclid Commons. These buildings are a home-away-from-home for over 1000 students and provide them with the opportunity for personal growth and the traditional on-campus university experience. With goals of encouraging a safe and healthy environment to live and learn, the Department of Housing and the Department of Residence Life will support students in their pursuit of a degree while encouraging them to take advantage of campus and Cleveland amenities available to residential students.
We look forward to reviewing your experience as a candidate for one of our many new roles!
