Employment Opportunities
The George Washington University is one of the largest private employers in the District of Columbia. Our main campus, Foggy Bottom, sits in the heart of our nation's capital and is an easy commute from Maryland and Virginia via the Metrorail system. Covering 30 square blocks, this urban campus offers all the amenities of a comprehensive university. The Vern Express shuttle bus links Foggy Bottom to the quiet Mount Vernon Campus, tucked into one of the most prestigious neighborhoods of Washington, D.C. Meanwhile, in rural northern Virginia, the Ashburn Campus serves as GW's technology and research hub, as well as its main campus for graduate studies.
Our talented staff team at The George Washington University brings together people from diverse backgrounds who have a wide variety of skills and abilities. We strive to build a strong sense of community that supports service excellence across our academic programs and campuses.
