POSITION DESCRIPTION

The Department of Architecture at UC Berkeley, within the College of Environmental Design, invites applications for a full-time tenure-track Assistant Professor position in Computation and Design Methods.

We seek candidates whose work engages computation as a creative, social, and technical force in architectural design – connecting tools, systems, and data to questions of authorship, agency, governance, and participation in the built environment. The field spans technically-oriented work (BIM, digital twins, spatial data systems), methodological inquiry (feedback systems, human-building interaction, distributedagency), and sociotechnical/critical research (platform studies, civic data, public-interest technology). We welcome candidates whose evidence of excellence takes varied forms: design and technical work, software and computational workflows, scholarship, or critical and historical research.

The appointed faculty member will teach across undergraduate and graduate levels, advise design studios, and have opportunities to build cross-campus collaborations and funded research partnerships.

QUALIFICATIONS & APPLICATION REQUIREMENTSFull qualifications, required application materials, and reference requirements are detailed at the apply link above.
