Part-time appointment in the MA in Social Design (MASD) graduate program, invites applications for a part-time faculty position.

The faculty position will teach six credits for the Spring 2024 term at an art school nationally known for valuing the arts as an avenue for social change, a dedication to teaching excellence, and a rigorous liberal arts curriculum. MASD seeks a candidate with solid teaching experience and a distinguished professional career in the space of design and social impact, social innovation or a related field. 

The MASD curriculum is built around a set of core competencies with corresponding learning outcomes, each with  elements of theory, practice and reflection: 

• theory: students are exposed to theoretical frameworks & definitions through a combination of readings, critical  discussion, writing and critique; 

• practice: students are exposed to a variety of contexts and design challenges in order to put theory and models into  practice in and outside of the classroom, as well as through a self-directed capstone project;  

• reflection: students critically reflect on the work of others, of their peers, and of themselves in order to develop their  own unique voice, perspective and practice in social design. 

Qualified candidates should be engaged in both theoretical/experimental explorations of social design practice and  experienced in the processes and practical applications to real-world problems. Candidates should have experience with multidisciplinary teams, collaborative projects, and engaging multiple stakeholders and  communities. Additionally, candidates should possess a solid understanding of various methods of design practice and research, including human-centered design. The candidate is expected to provide students with inspiration, leadership,  mentorship, and technical guidance. 

The faculty position will teach both MASD Seminar (3 credits) and Studio (3 credits) in  collaboration with the graduate program director. Students in the MASD program are encouraged to work towards tangible  solutions in collaboration with other institutions, organizations, and community members and with visiting faculty and  scholars from different disciplines and backgrounds. The faculty position will be responsible for helping to guide the curricular  experience, coordinating partners and stakeholders outside the institution, hosting visiting faculty and scholars, and serving  as capstone project advisor and mentor to the students.  

Working closely with the MASD Graduate Program Director, this faculty member will be expected to be an advocate for the Program and a partner in program support and recruitment of community partners and future students through graduate admissions,  curriculum and facility input, and office hours.
