Hiring Department:School of Architecture
Location: 845 W Harrison St
Requisition ID: 1022270
Posting Close Date: January 8, 2024 at 11:59 PM Central Time.

The School of Architecture at the University of Illinois at Chicago invites applications and nominations for the following position, Assistant Professor, to commence August 2024.

Situated within the College of Architecture, Design, and the Arts (CADA), UIC's School of Architecture shares complementary research agendas with the other three internationally recognized schools in the college, particularly the School of Design, with which it shares facilities and labs. The School of Architecture offers five degree programs: pre-professional (a four-year Bachelor of Science in Architecture, providing students with the basis for advanced standing in a graduate professional program); professional (a three-year NAAB accredited Master of Architecture); post-professional (a one-year Master of Science in Architecture), and two academic degree programs (a Bachelor of Arts in Architectural Studies, and a two-year Master of Arts in Design Criticism).

Located in one of the nation's most ethnically diverse public urban research universities, the School of Architecture promotes architecture as a cultural practice. This implies that architecture is not only a defined field with intrinsic rules and specificities, but also one immersed in a network of manifestations, actions, philosophies, and conjunctural representations of who and how we are in the world today. Additional information about the School of Architecture can be found at https://arch.uic.edu/.

Minimum qualifications: Applicants should have at least two years of teaching experience and a promising record of creative scholarship or practice with external recognition. They must hold a terminal degree (Master of Architecture) or an equivalent graduate professional degree, or a doctorate in architecture or related fields.
