Introduction (Description of School/College/Dept/Program)
The Department of Architecture is part of the School of Architecture & Urban Planning (SARUP) at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. SARUP is home to two significant international design awards, the Marcus Prize and the Urban Edge Award. SARUP also offers a unique range of externally funded studios, building long-term relationships with regional industrial and institutional partners. Located on Lake Michigan, Milwaukee is a city of diverse, walkable and livable neighborhoods. Milwaukee’s lively arts and cultural scene, combined with its Great Lakes and river watershed ecology, historic fabric, and mix of cultures, offers many avenues for research and design inspiration.



Job Summary
The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee School of Architecture & Urban Planning (SARUP) is offering a one-year fellowship to support a scholar(s) whose work focuses on matters of contemporary architecture research and design. Experimental forms of architecture practice that leverage regional aspects of Milwaukee and Wisconsin are also encouraged. The research and design fellow can expect the support of SARUP colleagues to facilitate connections to organizations and individuals who will amplify avenues of research opportunity.

Fellows are required to conduct design research and to participate in the SARUP community through the teaching of studios and seminars. Each 9-month fellowship includes teaching responsibilities that focus on the core studio curriculum at the undergraduate or graduate levels, and equally important, an elective studio and seminar driven by the fellow's research agenda. At the culmination of the fellowship fellows are expected to complete a final project that can be disseminated at a national level. Fellowship recipients will be expected to deliver a lecture about their fellowship research in the SARUP Guest Lecture Series, disseminate the research through peer-reviewed journals, conferences and other written media, and exhibit related work in SARUP's gallery.

The Department of Architecture is committed to creating a more inclusive and diverse institution and seeks candidates with demonstrated potential and research breadth, including those from diverse racial, ethnic, gender, historically underrepresented, differently abled, and disadvantaged backgrounds to contribute positively to its diverse community.
