Associate / Assistant Professorship in emerging sustainable architecture

jobbeskrivelse:

Aarhus School of Architecture wants to strengthen sustainability in architecture. We are looking for applicants with strong skills in architecture and sustainability as well as relevant experience from research and development work. We emphasise knowledge about and experience with sustainable architecture as a building practice. We expect you to be enthusiastic about the current challenges and opportunities that sustainability provides for architecture, and we expect you to have a holistic understanding of how technological, resource-related, social and spatial parameters can strengthen architectural sustainability. We expect you to help develop the area for the benefit of architectural practice, research and teaching.

An associate professorship is a permanent position with teaching and research and/or artistic research as principal responsibilities. Furthermore, publication and scientific dissemination are requirements. The position may also involve project management and administrative work by agreement.

An assistant professorship is a three-year position with research and teaching as principal responsibilities. The position may also, to a limited extent, involve administrative work or cross-institutional and external cooperation. Aarhus School of Architecture will ensure that the assistant professor receives supervision and opportunities for educational skills development. 

We would like the position filled from 1 September 2019. Remuneration will be in accordance with the collective agreement with the Danish Confederation of Professional Associations (AC-fællesoverenskomsten).

The affiliation of the associate / assistant professorship

The associate / assistant professorship will be affiliated with Research Lab 3, Emerging Sustainable Architecture, and the related teaching programme of the same name. The research lab has a strong focus on reducing the growing distance between global and local societal challenges related to space and architecture. Cultural, social and technologically sustainable approaches, models and methods are investigated and define the research field.

Research Lab 3 focuses on the relationship between growing and current societal and environmental challenges relating to the design of space and the competencies, thinking and methods required to address these challenges.

The teaching activities of the position will be affiliated with the teaching programme EmergingSustainable Architecture, which comprises teaching at bachelor and master level. The academic range of the research lab is reflected in the teaching programme which, based in sustainability, works with architectural approaches to societal, climatic and environmental challenges. 

We are looking for applicants with strong professional integrity who can help set the agenda for the architectural design of our society. You must want to be part of a dynamic research and teaching environment, ranging from practice in our production facilities to desk crits to academic research and dissemination, etc. We place a particular emphasis on the applicant's desire and ability to contribute to teamwork involving cross-disciplinary collaboration with colleagues and external parties within both teaching and research.
