The Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences (AUAS) is seeking a LECTURER
(equivalent assistant professor) who will
1) teach and coordinate the “Literacy” track within the Master’s programme
in Digital Design,
2) cooperate closely with the lecturer responsible of the “Research” track.

Deadline 23 Nov.
Start date flexible: 1 Feb, or 1 Aug 2019 at the latest.

S/he will work at the M.Sc. Digital Design, a new and ambitious program
that aims at combining a Research through Design/Making approach with
applied education and real-world projects.

The new hire will be a specialist in design processes and will face the
challenge of "bringing on the same page" a cohort of 24 talented,
competitively-selected international students with diverse design
backgrounds (from UX/UI, to Product, to Fashion...).

The M.Sc. Digital Design is brand new, only in its second year of life, and
offers an opportunity to grow professionally and shape an up-and-coming
program. It has an emphasis on multidisciplinary design, HCI design, VR,
and tangible interfaces.

Dutch Lecturers are roughly equivalent to American Assistant Professors. In
Dutch universities of applied sciences, a permanent contract is awarded
after 2 full years of satisfactorily employment. Teaching load is 1
year-long course per academic year, plus some management/coordination tasks.

Let me add a personal note here, as the co-coordinator of the program: I
think that the really exciting thing is that we're shaping this Master's
from the ground up, and I'm looking for someone who's eager to make a
lasting impact in how we teach and work.
