*Open Rank Faculty Position in 3D Design (Industrial Design/Product Design)*
School of Design and Creative Technologies - College of Fine Arts
The University of Texas at Austin

*Description*
The Department of Design in the School of Design and Creative Technologies
(SDCT) at The University of Texas at Austin (UT) seeks a faculty colleague
with a focus in three-dimensional design (industrial design/product
design). We encourage applications from both academics and seasoned
practitioners eager to join a team of whole-hearted collaborators in
reinventing design education for the twenty-first century. Salary is
competitive; rank and tenure status are commensurate with experience.

With the support of College of Fine Arts leadership, we are reimagining our
coursework, curriculum, and structure from the point of view that design is
more powerful and informed when practiced in concert with other
disciplines. Course development and teaching responsibilities in our
fast-growing programs may include the following:

   - Introductory courses in sketching and prototyping for both design
   majors and curious non-majors from engineering, business, computer science,
   medicine, and other fields
   - Introductory, intermediate, and advanced undergraduate and graduate
   courses in 3D (industrial/product) design
   - Courses in digital prototyping and fabrication
   - Senior capstone project and exhibition courses
   - Thematic/special topics courses in your area of expertise at both the
   undergraduate and graduate levels
   - Interdisciplinary team-taught courses that enroll students from
   multiple design specializations and/or university departments
   - Graduate thesis supervisions

In addition to teaching, the full-time faculty in 3D design will
participate in administrative and student service activities, including
developing new curricula. Faculty appointed with tenure or to the tenure
track are also expected to maintain an active agenda of scholarly research
and/or creative professional practice; non-tenure track faculty are
encouraged to do so as well.

*The Department of Design*
The design program at UT, formerly a division of the Department of Art and
Art History, became the Department of Design in 2017 and combined forces
with the recently created Department of Arts and Entertainment
Technologies. the Center for Integrated Design, and the design Institute
for Health to form the new School of Design and Creative Technologies
(SDCT). The move to SDCT has enabled the design program to expand its
enrollment and course offerings to meet growing demand from majors and
non-majors, and to develop industry partnerships.

*The University of Texas at Austin (UT)*
The University of Texas at Austin is a flagship, comprehensive research
university of over 50,000 students that is routinely ranked in the top 50
universities globally by U.S. News and World Report, Times Higher
Education, and the Center for World University Rankings. UT is located in
Austin, the capital of Texas, a city justly renowned for its vibrant
cultural life and its thriving creative and tech industries. Austin is
routinely included in top-ten lists of best US cities for new college
grads, for young professionals, for future job growth, and for outdoor
activities, urban forests, and family friendliness.
