Aarhus School of Architecture is pleased to announce several teaching assistant professor positions open to applicants who are concurrently employed in the architectural profession. The positions are part-time positions with a focus on teaching in the school's bachelor's and master's degree programmes.
Aarhus School of Architecture trains architects to the highest level and is one of Europe's most renowned schools of architecture. The school's foundation is rooted in a Scandinavian architectural tradition that highly values social responsibility, the understanding of space, and craftsmanship. We wish to further strengthen this position.
In order to achieve our ambition of offering the school's students a closer and more ongoing contact with the practicians of the architectural profession, we are looking for skilled architects with experience from both practice and teaching who can contribute to developing further the education we offer based on the school's pedagogy and didactics within the school's overall vision: 'Engaging through Architecture'.
Applicants for the position are expected to participate in developing further our architectural education and ensure its conceptual, architectural and methodological foundation. It is this foundation that guarantees the school's students are given a good and professionally and academically ambitious start to their studies. And the foundation is also necessary to, also in the future, make it possible for Aarhus School of Architecture to train strong graduates.
The positions are open from 1 September 2023 or as soon as possible after this date.
