Taubman College seeks applications for two fellowships focusing on racial and spatial justice – one in architecture and urban design focusing on the built environment, and one in urban planning and/or architecture with a designated role as a co-investigator on our Egalitarian Metropolis research project. Both are two-year fellowships.
The fellowships are among the oldest and most recognized positions of their kind. While at Taubman, fellows develop their work and teaching within an intellectually diverse and dynamic academic context composed of dedicated faculty and talented students from around the world. Each of the fellowships includes teaching related to the candidate’s area of interest, resources for the development of work, possibilities to interface with scholars and researchers in the wider university context, and the opportunity to share the outcome of the fellowship with the college. Fellows spend two years in residence, typically teaching three classes in their first year and four in their second, in addition to pursuing their fellowship interests.
How to Apply
Interested applicants should submit one PDF (500kb max) that contains a cover letter explaining your interest in the position, a current curriculum vitae, a link to a portfolio of design or scholarly work (not to exceed 20 pages), and the name, title, institution, phone number, and email address of three professional references.
The fellowship includes both teaching and research components. This posting is for the teaching component. Please also submit your materials to the research posting, Job ID 200131. If you have questions about how to apply, please contact Qiana London, HR Officer, at qlondon@umich.edu.
