Job description

Welcome to the official site for employment opportunities at MICA. At MICA, we empower our employees to use their talent in a variety of ways. We are pleased that you are interested in career opportunities offered at MICA.
Job Description
Part-time appointment in the MA in Social Design (MASD) graduate program, invites applications for a part-time faculty position.
The faculty position will teach six credits for the Spring 2024 term at an art school nationally known for valuing the arts as an avenue for social change, a dedication to teaching excellence, and a rigorous liberal arts curriculum. MASD seeks a candidate with solid teaching experience and a distinguished professional career in the space of design and social impact, social innovation or a related field.
The MASD curriculum is built around a set of core competencies with corresponding learning outcomes, each with elements of theory, practice and reflection:
  • theory: students are exposed to theoretical frameworks & definitions through a combination of readings, critical discussion, writing and critique;
  • practice: students are exposed to a variety of contexts and design challenges in order to put theory and models into practice in and outside of the classroom, as well as through a self-directed capstone project;
  • reflection: students critically reflect on the work of others, of their peers, and of themselves in order to develop their own unique voice, perspective and practice in social design.

Qualified candidates should be engaged in both theoretical/experimental explorations of social design practice and experienced in the processes and practical applications to real-world problems. Candidates should have experience with multidisciplinary teams, collaborative projects, and engaging multiple stakeholders and communities. Additionally, candidates should possess a solid understanding of various methods of design practice and
research, including human-centered design. The candidate is expected to provide students with inspiration, leadership, mentorship, and technical guidance.
The faculty position will teach both MASD Seminar (3 credits) and Studio (3 credits) in collaboration with the graduate program director. Students in the MASD program are encouraged to work towards tangible solutions in collaboration with other institutions, organizations, and community members and with visiting faculty and scholars from different disciplines and backgrounds. The faculty position will be responsible for helping to guide the curricular experience, coordinating partners and stakeholders outside the institution, hosting visiting faculty and scholars, and serving as capstone project advisor and mentor to the students.
Working closely with the MASD Graduate Program Director, this faculty member will be expected to be an advocate for the Program and a partner in program support and recruitment of community partners and future students through graduate admissions, curriculum and facility input, and office hours.
Requirements:
  • Mix of academic and professional experience in both design and/or a relevant field of art, social innovation, social entrepreneurship, social sciences, public policy, and/or community/economic development;
  • Graduate degree in design or a relevant social field(s);
  • Experience working collaboratively with people of diverse disciplines, races, ethnicities, gender identities, sexual orientations, nationalities, ages, and abilities;

Valued, but not required:
  • Professional experience working on social problems at local, national and/or international levels in design for social impact, social innovation, community engagement or a relevant field;
  • College-level teaching experience.

The online application should include:
  • Current CV
