Applications Open for 2022-23 Visiting Professorships

The Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) School of Architecture (SoA) invites applications for the 2022-23 Ann Kalla Professorship in Architecture and the Joseph F. Thomas Visiting Professorship. We welcome early to mid-career practitioners, scholars and studio educators with focused research and/or creative work interested in teaching. As part of the visiting professorship, you will teach three classes: one a required course and the other two of your own choosing. These can be design studios, lectures, seminars and/or technical workshops. In addition, you will receive support for your research/creative activity through research assistance and/or discretionary funding.

The School is focused on addressing the three challenges facing architecture in the 21st century, namely climate change, artificial intelligence and social justice. We are exploring this through pedagogies in the areas of Design Fundamentals, Design Research, and Design Ethics (soa.cmu.edu/pedagogies2020). Applicants should relate their research to one or more of these challenges and pedagogies. In addition, alignment with the School’s strengths in sustainable design; computational design and fabrication; building performance and diagnostics; architecture, engineering and construction management; and architectural history and theory is also encouraged.

Applicants need not specify the visiting professorship to which they are applying. The search committee will make the assignment. We encourage applications from women and historically underrepresented minorities.

These positions require at minimum a first professional degree in architecture or a Master’s degree.
