Assistant or Associate Professor of Architecture – Research Focus

Join to apply for the Assistant or Associate Professor of Architecture – Research Focus role at University of Miami Health System

The University of Miami School of Architecture (U-SoA) invites applications for full‑time, tenure‑track appointments at the rank of Assistant or Associate Professor. Candidates are expected to demonstrate a focused program of design‑based or applied research while showing a commitment to teaching and mentoring undergraduate and graduate students. The appointment will align with one or multiple areas of strategic investment, including Sustainable and Resilient Design, Building Technology, Environmental Systems, Landscape, Design Computation, and Digital Fabrication.

We are committed to social and environmental resilience, interdisciplinary inquiry, and impactful agency both locally and globally.

A PhD is preferred, but a terminal professional degree may also qualify when paired with substantial experience and accomplishments in the field. To encourage interdisciplinarity, applications from candidates with a terminal degree outside of Architecture will also be considered, provided their work focuses on the built environment. The search committee will evaluate the candidates’ ability to secure external research funding and proven ability to publish peer‑reviewed books or articles in leading disciplinary journals.

Applicants should be prepared to speak to strategies that promote and enhance a sense of belonging among the University’s constituencies.

Please submit the following:
1) cover letter;
2) curriculum vitae;
3) research statement;
4) teaching statement;
5) contact information for three references;
6) portfolio of publications and creative works. Review of applications will begin in mid‑January 2026 and continue until an appointment is made for a start in Fall 2026. Address your application to the Co‑Chairs of the Search Committee, Germane Barnes (g.barnes) and Carie Penabad (cpenabad).
