Faculty searches across Architecture and Design programs

The Tulane School of Architecture and Built Environment is seeking to fill multiple tenure-track and professor of practice positions across two of its many dynamic academic programs—Architecture and Design. 

Tulane School of Architecture and Built Environment is recognized for robust initiatives in community-engaged design (The Albert and Tina Small Center for Collaborative Design), design-build (URBANbuild), interdisciplinary research studios, and research initiatives supported by the Center on Climate Change and Urbanism. Over the past several years, the school has experienced significant growth, and in spring 2025, the school returned to its newly renovated home, Richardson Memorial Hall, complete with new studios, fabrication shops, classrooms, exhibition space, and offices.

All open faculty positions (listed and linked below) start as early as fall 2027. The search committees will commence their initial screening of applications on December 15, 2026, and conclude their initial review on January 5, 2027. However, applications will be accepted and reviewed until the position is filled. Qualified candidates are encouraged to apply regardless of when application reviews are initiated. Applications from the broadest array of backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives are welcome.

Assistant/Associate (tenure/tenure-track) Professor of Design
We are seeking qualified candidates within the discipline of either Industrial Design or Graphic Design to fill a position for Assistant or Associate Professor in Design (tenure-track/tenured). We seek candidates to join our interdisciplinary team with the capacity to teach in their area of specialization, as well as lead coursework across multiple design disciplines, including studios at the introductory level. In addition to demonstrated excellence in studio teaching and creative practice, ideal applicants will bring an interdisciplinary approach to a program that emphasizes both digital and analog fabrication, creative problem-solving, and synergies between traditional design disciplines.

Professor of Practice in Design
We invite applications for a full-time faculty position in the Design Program at the rank of Professor of Practice. We seek candidates to join our interdisciplinary team with the capacity to teach in their area of specialization, as well as lead coursework across multiple design disciplines, including studios at the introductory level. Preference will be given to candidates with expressed expertise in industrial design or graphic design.
