Two Assistant or Associate Professor Positions in Architecture
School of Architecture, Florida Agricultural & Mechanical University, Tallahassee, FL

Application deadline: January 31, 2012

The School of Architecture at Florida A&M University announces a search to fill two tenure-earning faculty positions, to start in August 2012, at the ranks of Assistant or Associate Professor.

Salaries will be competitive and determined on the basis of experience and qualifications.

The School of Architecture is organized into two Divisions: the Division of Architecture and the Division of Engineering Technology. The Architecture Program is one of seven architecture programs offered at a Historically Black College and University and one of six programs in Florida’s State University System. Seventy percent of the School’s 300 students are enrolled in the four year Bachelor of Science in Architectural Studies. The Bachelor degree feeds the two SOA professional programs — the Bachelor of Architecture and the Master of Architecture. The Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch.) degree is a design studio-centered undergraduate degree. The Master of Architecture (M.Arch.) degree is a thesis-/research-centered graduate experience.

These nine month, tenure-track positions involve teaching and research responsibilities. Successful candidates will possess the ability to teach undergraduate and graduate level design studio and/or lecture courses for Architecture majors in the B.Arch and M.Arch degree programs, carry out scholarly research agendas and have expertise in two or more of the following areas: Design, Structures, Digital Technologies, Environmental Systems, Building Technologies, Architectural History and/or Historic Preservation.

Qualifications:
Candidates should clearly indicate their primary and secondary areas of expertise. Terminal degrees in applicants’ primary fields of work are required. To be considered at the rank of Associate Professor, a strong record of creative teaching, funded research and/or professional activity should be documented.

Application:
Applications will be received until January 31, 2012 or until the positions are filled.
