This ongoing position is situated within the ANU School of Art and Design.

It prepares graduates who are skilled, inventive, versatile and ready to engage with present and future global opportunities and challenges.

We support a focus on social and environmental responsibility and encourage students to develop an ethical framework as emerging design practitioners.

The successful candidate will contribute to the program at all levels from undergraduate to PhD, delivering project-based learning, engaging with industry and community and supervising research students. Applicants should have experience in teaching contemporary design practice and methods, and the ability to contribute to a range of curriculum areas.

The College, which is structured into two main research schools, offers degrees in more than 20 discipline areas and excels in research across the creative arts, humanities and social sciences. The College has a substantial international research presence and is a major source of national policy advice.
