Careers
Director of Doctoral Studies
We are looking for a dynamic faculty member to lead the world’s first PhD program in Transition Design into its next chapter while advancing the contemporary role and purpose of Design. The candidate will bring strong design underpinnings in making and critical thinking—and show enthusiasm and promise in design-led research, creative practice, and teaching and advising at undergraduate, master's, and doctoral levels.
The program draws some of the most ambitious researchers in the field, people who have chosen to spend years of their lives investigating how design can help us understand and shape complex societal, technological, and ecological change, including transitions toward more sustainable, balanced, and place-based ways of living. The Director is responsible for guiding the intellectual and scholarly environment of that program, and for the conditions that allow those researchers to finish what they started.
Communication Design (Typographic and Generative Systems) Professor
Visual Communication is being rebuilt in code, motion, and responsive systems. We are looking for a dynamic faculty member to teach at the forefront of the field while advancing the contemporary role and purpose of Design. The candidate will bring strong design underpinnings in making and critical thinking—and show enthusiasm and promise in design-led research, creative practice, and teaching and advising at undergraduate, master's, and doctoral levels.
We seek a communication designer whose core expertise is typography and visual systems, and whose practice extends into generative systems, screen-based design, motion, creative coding, and critical and theoretical engagement with emerging technologies. This person understands typography, identity, and visual language as dynamic forms of communication, shaped across motion, sound, variable states, and responsive environments as well as fixed on a static page.
