The College of Architecture and Design at Lawrence Technological University is growing! We’re looking for curious, nimble, innovative, and diverse architectural designers to help us set the course for our next decade.
The architecture program is part of a private educational institution that focuses on technology- and industry-connected professional education. The College of Architecture and Design (CoAD) aims to be an agile and entrepreneurial technology incubator that incorporates educational objectives into the pursuit of creative and innovative ideas across disciplines. Under a new president and provost, with an outstanding location in Metro Detroit, and with our successful recent NAAB accreditation review, Lawrence Technological University and the CoAD are moving forward with more students, new programs, an enhanced research focus, and opportunities for talented individuals seeking to join a strong, collaborative group of teaching and applied research faculty to continue to develop pedagogical innovations in architectural design and practice.
Architecture is a core player in this journey and we are calling for exceptional people to help shape the mission of the college. We’re looking for outstanding and potentially unconventional candidates for a tenure-track or tenured position at the rank of Assistant or Associate Professor in the Master of Architecture/Bachelor of Science in Architecture programs. We are strategically seeking ways to diversify our faculty through gender, race, and content area. Our faculty balance scholarly and creative pursuits with participation in a program that emphasizes student contact and college/university engagement, in a setting small enough to encourage cross-disciplinary and multidisciplinary collaborations.
The appointment will commence in Fall 2025.

We’re looking for candidates with future-focused approaches to research methods or studio-based design pedagogy. Experience in cross-disciplinary opportunities linking architectural knowledge to parallel design disciplines, such as interior design, product design, game design, or graphic design, is preferred.
We’re looking for teachers and scholars with strong communication skills and a willingness to become actively involved in the functioning of the department, including academic advising, curriculum development, program assessment, and recruitment. Preference will be given to candidates demonstrating a combination of design studio and lecture/seminar-based teaching experience at the college level, and the ability to work with and promote a diverse student body.
The College of Architecture and Design believes that human differences enrich innovation, collaboration, and positive impact in a complex, global world. We commit to fostering an educational environment that welcomes and supports the experiences and perspectives from people of various dimensions of personhood. Our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion guides our approach to planning, teaching, research, and more.
