Assistant Professor of Landscape Architecture
Assistant Professor (Tenure-Track) in Landscape Architecture The School of Architecture at the University of Hawai'i at Manoa (UH Manoa) seeks a dynamic and accomplished faculty member in landscape architecture with expertise in designing ecologically and socially sustainable, resilient, healthy places and communities. Position duties include teaching at the graduate and undergraduate levels; research, professional practice, and/or creative work; and service. The school seeks candidates who can demonstrate current, advanced scholarship and design inquiry that exhibits an in-depth understanding of the landscape architecture discipline, as well as strong teaching abilities and demonstrated effectiveness in studio instruction. This appointment will begin in Fall 2025 and will be filled at the rank of Assistant Professor. About the University of Hawai‘i School of Architecture The School of Architecture offers a pre-professional Bachelor of Environmental Design (BEnvD) degree, an LAAB-accredited Master of Landscape Architecture (MLA) degree, a Master of Architecture (MArch) degree, and a NAAB-accredited Doctor of Architecture (DArch) degree. The school is recognized for its social and environmental design research in Asia-Pacific, Hawai'i, and tropical environments, which provides instructive models for complex global problems. The school and university embrace a collaborative, integrated approach to improving built environments with a strong commitment to design excellence, sustainability, and applied research. The school houses the University of Hawai'i Community Design Center and the Environmental Research and Design Lab (ERDL), both of which provide opportunities for innovative faculty design research. Master of Landscape Architecture (MLA) Program The MLA program at UH Manoa prepares its graduates to become leaders of the next generation of landscape architects. Trained in the extraordinary Hawaiian landscape, students are equipped with emerging tools and strategies needed to enhance a beautiful, resilient and healthy built environment. As the only professional landscape architecture program in Hawai‘i, situated within a Carnegie R1 Land, Sea and Space Grant university, the MLA advances contemporary urban landscape design teaching, theory and practice in the state and tropical Asia-Pacific coastal regions with a dedicated focus on ecological and social sustainability by design. Its emphasis on contemporary, sustainable urban/landscape planning and design in tropical Asia-Pacific regions distinguishes this MLA from other North American landscape architecture programs. Hawai‘i, with its rich natural and cultural history and manifold environmental and social challenges, provides a unique place of learning and opportunity for cutting-edge landscape architectural research, teaching, and practice. There is no other place in the United States where the aspirations of twenty-first century landscape architectural practice converge so seamlessly with the philosophy and biocultural practices of the local indigenous community. Duties and Responsibilities This full-time, 9-month faculty position at the rank of Assistant Professor includes responsibilities for teaching, research, creative work, and service. The School of Architecture seeks candidates who can help advance and strengthen the curriculum and focus of its MLA degree and contribute to the delivery of the BEnvD, MArch, and DArch programs. Within the required specialization in landscape architecture, desired expertise includes but is not limited to design research and practice at the intersection of landscape architecture and digital technology and/or design for healthy, livable, and resilient communities. The school seeks candidates who are versatile, strong design educators that will complement the skills of the faculty at the School of Architecture. Minimum Qualifications Candidates must have a minimum of a Master of Landscape Architecture (MLA) degree. Additionally, before application for tenure, documentation of a professional license to practice landscape architecture (or architecture) is required of candidates who do not hold a PhD. Applicants must demonstrate excellent design, communication, and collaboration skills; A strong record of demonstrated teaching effectiveness; The ability to maintain a vigorous program of research and/or creative work and potential to advance the discipline. Desirable Qualifications The school especially welcomes candidates with additional professional/post-professional degree(s) or a PhD in landscape architecture/urban design/architecture or a related field. An established body of peer-reviewed built and/or creative work or scholarship in multiple areas relevant to landscape architecture and/or the design of healthy, resilient communities. Fluency in discipline-relevant digital technology, e.g., generative design/AI, emerging animation/modeling, and/or digital fabrication/prototyping. Professional practice experience that translates to strengthening the outcomes for design implementation courses in the areas of site detailing and integration of construction technologies. Aptitude for administrative academic service and/or experience with LAAB accreditation and curriculum development. Experience working with individuals and groups of culturally diverse backgrounds and/or demonstrated interest in indigenous perspectives. To Apply: Visit:
