The Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning at the University of Michigan invites postdoctoral candidates to join us in building tomorrow.  Recent doctoral degree holders (within the past five years) with the capacity to translate innovation in digital and material technologies into building sector practices; improve health outcomes through design research; model sustainable urban strategies; or generate historical and theoretical knowledge for a multicultural and global discipline are invited to apply. We are particularly interested in emerging scholars who can contribute to our project of remaking academia and practice through academic innovation, and who can contribute to the university’s diversity, equity, and inclusion agenda.

Expectations include teaching two courses per year, public dissemination of research findings through conference presentations and/or publications, an on-campus panel or symposium, and participation in grant-seeking efforts, potentially in concert with other faculty at Taubman College and the University of Michigan.

Applications are due by January 8th, 2018.
