Rhode Island School of Design

The Department of Architecture, in the Division of Architecture and Design, at the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD), invites applications for one full-time faculty member (term appointment) at the rank of Assistant Professor-in-Residence, to commence fall 2026. The position is for a 2-year term appointment (AY 26/27 and AY 27/28).

 RISD recognizes principles of social equity, inclusion, and diversity as fundamental to its mission as an art and design school. These principles require sustained attention to a multiplicity of differences and call for an expansion of the forms of knowledge that shape our curricula and pedagogy. RISD is committed to the collective work of institutional transformation and values applicants whose teaching, pedagogical, and professional experiences have prepared them to foster and sustain equitable learning environments. We especially welcome faculty whose pedagogy engages diverse perspectives, expands the forms of knowledge, and fosters a culture of belonging where all students, staff, and faculty can thrive.

The department seeks qualified individuals to offer graduate and undergraduate-level instruction in architectural design. This is a design position, and successful candidates will teach design studios at core and advanced levels. The department is particularly interested in applicants with knowledge and applied experience in drawing and representation, and building assembly and construction systems, as well as applicants with an active professional practice.
