Open Rank Visiting Teaching Professor, Architecture

About Northeastern:
Founded in 1898, Northeastern is a global research university and the recognized leader in experience-driven lifelong learning. Our world-renowned experiential approach empowers our students, faculty, alumni, and partners to create impact far beyond the confines of discipline, degree, and campus.

Our locations—in Boston; Charlotte, North Carolina; London; Portland, Maine; San Francisco; Seattle; Silicon Valley; Toronto; Vancouver; and the Massachusetts communities of Burlington and Nahant—are nodes in our growing global university system. Through this network, we expand opportunities for flexible, student-centered learning and collaborative, solutions-focused research.

Northeastern's comprehensive array of undergraduate and graduate programs— in a variety of on-campus and online formats—lead to degrees through the doctorate in nine colleges and schools. Among these, we offer more than 195 multi-discipline majors and degrees designed to prepare students for purposeful lives and careers.

About the Opportunity:
The School of Architecture in the College of Arts, Media and Design invites applications and nominations for a fulltime or 2/3 full-time open rank Visiting Teaching Professor position to expand our vibrant teaching and research initiatives for our undergraduate and graduate Architecture and Landscape Architecture programs. We seek candidates who will lead classes in the area of design, research, professional practice, and analysis of the built environment.

Responsibilities:
This position will entail teaching two or three courses per fall and spring semesters (4-6 courses per academic year) on subjects relevant to their specific expertise areas, such as architectural or landscape history, building technology and science, architecture, urban and landscape design, and/or professional practice. Such topics might draw from the candidate's professional and academic experiences and/or creative practice and research, as well as their local (Boston and Northeast USA) and/or global experiences. Class formats may range between design studios, workshop courses, seminars and/or lectures. Rank as an Assistant, Associate or Full teaching professor will be assessed in consideration of the candidate's previous teaching experience and creative practice and/or research experience. In addition to teaching, all full-time and 2/3 full-time faculty are expected to contribute to the cultural life and function of the School of Architecture through service commitments on committees, special projects, and student advising and engagement activities. These service roles are determined based on alignments with candidates' past experiences and profiles in teaching research and creative practice.

Qualifications:
Candidates must have a terminal degree in the anticipated focus areas of teaching (typically PhD's for Architectural and Landscape Architecture historians, and Masters degrees for design, professional practice, and building technology faculty) by appointment start date. Candidates are normally expected to teach at both the undergraduate and graduate level. Candidates with a well-developed research agenda that will inform and advance current trends in the field through creative production, experimentation, collaboration, exhibition and publication will be given preference for the position.

Salary Grade:
FAC

Additional Information:
Candidates must include a letter of application describing teaching, research and relevant professional experience, a curriculum vitae and evidence of excellent teaching ability. Candidates should also provide the contact information of three references. Inquiries may be directed to the Director of the School of Architecture, Dan Adams, atda.adams@northeastern.edu.
