The successful candidate will teach within a dynamic department that encourages cross-disciplinary practice among architectural history, studio art, and design education. Thus, we seek candidates with an understanding of and engagement with recent debates in global art history, especially in areas of the world outside of Europe. Candidates must address the needs of a student population of great diversity - in age, cultural background, ethnicity, primary language and academic preparation - through course materials, teaching strategies and advisement. They also will be required to participate in 1-2 faculty meetings per semester and provide assessment data and information to the department.
