JOB OVERVIEW

The College of Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning (DAAP) at the University of Cincinnati invites applications for interior design adjunct faculty positions at any rank in the top-ranked School of Architecture and Interior Design (SAID).  

 

The School of Architecture and Interior Design (SAID) confers an accredited first professional graduate degree in Architecture (M Arch), an accredited professional degree in Interior Design (BSID), an undergraduate degree in Architecture (BS Arch), post-professional degrees in each discipline (MS Arch and M.IntD) and the Ph.D. degree in Architecture. The core mission of the professional programs at SAID is to prepare students for critical engagement with practice. The foundation of all of the studio programs at SAID remains a liberal arts education, which provides a broad basis for understanding the role of architecture within a cultural and historical context; the professional curricula are enriched with elective seminars, lectures and design studios that provide opportunities to engage in travel/study programs, experimental projects, and service-learning. Students alternate these more traditional academic experiences with periods of professional experience through our landmark cooperative education program (co-op).

 

Adjuncts teaching in the studio based interior design programs are expected to deliver professional knowledge to our students in a team setting, while working closely with students on a one-to-one basis in the studio setting. Many studio faculty will teach in the cross-disciplinary foundation program, but faculty in interior design may also be sought for upper-division undergraduate and graduate studios. Faculty may also be recruited for a limited number of subject-area support courses (typically in materials and construction technology, building systems, presentation skills, interior design history/theory and historic preservation) as required by the needs of the School administration.

ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS

*On a part-time basis, conduct and teach assigned undergraduate and/or graduate-level courses and seminars. *May serve as an academic adviser for students and evaluate student coursework. *Engage in other activities ancillary to or in support of his or her responsibilities. *Review, and where necessary, respond in a timely manner to all University-related communications. *Other related duties as assigned.

*Bachelor's degree in Interior Design and a Master's degree in Interior Design or closely related field or equivalent professional experience. *Excellent written and oral communication skills with the ability to present complex material to students unfamiliar with a subject. *Ability to work and collaborate with individuals from a variety of culturally diverse backgrounds.
