Assistant Professor In Architectural Design and Engineering
Eindhoven University of Technology
Job descriptionArchitectural Design and Engineering (ADE) is looking for an enthusiastic Assistant Professor with expertise in the field of sustainable architectural design and the “making” of architecture: from design to tangible object, with knowledge of materialisations, detailing and engineering of architectural designs.Job DescriptionIn the Department of the Built Environment there is a position available for an Assistant Professor (0.8 fte-1 fte) in the chair of Architectural Design and Engineering (ADE). The Department offers a comprehensive, research-oriented educational program (BSc / MSc) within the broad field of the Built Environment. Graduates go on to work in diverse professional areas, such as architecture, urban design and planning, building physics, installation techniques, construction, real estate management and building production.The Department has organized its research in four research programs in which high-level research is conducted and has excellent facilities available comprising various laboratories.The chair ADE focuses on teaching and research with reference to the design, production and engineering of the built object. The main research areas focus on: Sustainability, Emerging Technologies and Shifting typologies. The creative tension between technical and artistic ends forms a vital impulse in architectural design, determining the expression of detail, material and structure. At the same time the resultant form of the building is hardly autonomous, it is to a large extent determined by the constructive properties, the functional requirements and scenographic possibilities of the program.An important focus within the chair is the development of teaching and research programs specifically concerned with the “making” of architecture: from design to tangible materialised object. The systematic exploration of the methodological scope of research by design constitutes a cherished ambition of the chair. If detailing and materialisation form the basic focus of the ADE chair, its actual priorities are to place these interests within the urgent concerns of sustainable design, circularity and the innovation of building systems which anticipate upon future technological developments and their influence upon the built environment. The chair Architectural Design and Engineering is part of the unit AUDE with its own research program “Living Cities” focused on the evolutionary development of the existing city and region, taking into account both its historical path dependencies as well as tomorrows societal challenges.The AUDE unit (Architectural and Urban Design and Engineering) is one of the four units making up the Department of the Built Environment. The Faculty consists of the Unit Structural Engineering and Design, Building Physics and Services, Urban Systems and Real Estate and Architectural Urban Design and Engineering. Spatial design forms the core of the Unit. There is a strong focus and interest in expanding cross-over and interdisciplinary collaborations. The ambition is to work in a cross-disciplinary context and expand the collaborations between the Units within the faculty and the University as a whole.Responsibilities:The assistant professor will contribute both to the teaching, the research, the valorisation and the organisation of the ADE chair, the AUDE Unit and the Faculty as a whole. We expect the candidate to contribute to increasing interdisciplinary collaborations and enforcing the multidisciplinary character of the faculty.As far as teaching is concerned the successful candidate will take on curricular subjects but also participate in design studio during the bachelor and master phases of the curriculum. The candidate will be expected to evaluate and renew parts of the curriculum, especially regarding the more technological part of the architectural design. With regard to research the successful candidate will be expected to initiate and contribute to the chair’s ambitions with regard to research with a special focus on the academic exploration of research by design and the engineering of the built environment. The research activities will be subsumed under the research program of the Unit called “Living Cities”. The assistant professor may be invited to participate in the various deliberative bodies of the unit, the faculty and the university.Job requirements
