Architecture Faculty Associate

The Design School in the Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts at ASU invites applications for part-time Architecture Faculty Associate appointments for Fall 2026 and/or Spring 2027 to teach undergraduate and/or graduate core architecture studios and architecture technology courses on the Tempe campus (in-person) and/or online (via an asynchronous modality).

Specializations or required skills may include: the ability to teach architectural design methodologies and core design principles, spatial literacy, fundamental drawing/modeling techniques, and systems and site integration. Specializations may also include: environmental and/or structural architectural technology, building science, and envelope modeling. Areas of focus may encompass climate, site, and solar analyses; passive heating, cooling, and daylighting strategies; and the architectural design implications of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. 

The successful candidate(s) will teach in-person or online courses, prepare course materials, evaluate student work, and assist students. Faculty Associates positions are one semester, non-benefits eligible, fixed-term appointments with no tenure implications, not to exceed .40 FTE.

The number of courses is contingent upon needs, funding and sufficient enrollment. Salary is based upon qualifications and assigned teaching load. Individuals employed as Faculty Associates may not hold multiple, non-benefits-eligible appointments at Arizona State University. 

Faculty Associate assignments are paid $1,500-$2,000 per credit hour, depending on the component, over the length of the session.
