Assistant or Associate Professor

The Harvard University Graduate School of Design invites applications for one or more full-time academic ladder appointments at the rank of assistant or associate professor (untenured), to begin Fall 2010. The successful candidate(s) will be expected to teach graduate-level urban planning or urban design courses and studios, and conduct research in core subjects of urban planning, urban design and the built environment broadly. We seek candidates with teaching and research interests in the area of international development, although strong candidates with research interests in other core subjects will also be considered. A Ph.D. in urban planning or equivalent doctoral degree in a related field is preferred, although a substantive professional urban planning or urban design background will also be considered. Minority and women candidates are especially encouraged to apply.

Applications will be considered starting on 1 December 2009 but will be accepted without prejudice after that date. Interested candidates should send a letter of interest, a CV, the names and contact information of three references, as well as two sample articles or chapters, to the Office of Faculty Planning, Harvard University Graduate School of Design, 48 Quincy Street, Cambridge, MA 02138, TEL: 617-495-5409, FAX: 617-496-5310, attention: Professor Peter Rowe, Search Committee Chair.
