Senior candidates should be able and willing to direct the Urban Planning Program. We anticipate hiring two new faculty for a start date of July 1, 2016.
Responsibilities will include teaching, research, and administration. Successful applicants will demonstrate a commitment to advancing the field through teaching, practice, and/or research.

GSAPP seeks faculty who can innovate their disciplines and can create an environment where students can not only be educated in current and past ideas and methods, but can also explore and test new ideas. Therefore, preference will generally be given to candidates who are able to teach and/or conduct research in both traditional fields and in an emergent specialization.
Qualified individuals from diverse backgrounds and experiences are encouraged to apply. GSAPP enjoys a diverse faculty and is actively seeking to expand a core group of individuals who can bring new ideas and approaches by way of their own experiences and backgrounds.
