The Robert Reich School of Landscape Architecture (RRSLA) at Louisiana State University (LSU) invites applications for a full-time non-tenure track Assistant Professor of Practice in Landscape Architecture. The school seeks candidates with expertise in design foundations, grading and stormwater management, building information modeling, and other emerging elements of the landscape architecture profession. Teaching responsibilities will include instruction in the professional Bachelor of Landscape Architecture (BLA) and Master of Landscape Architecture (MLA) programs.

Successful candidates are expected to teach studios and core courses, review design projects, advise undergraduate and graduate students, and contribute to curricular development. We seek colleagues who will contribute to RRSLA's legacy of excellence in design education and advance the discipline through cutting-edge research.

Context :

LSU is located in Baton Rouge, the state's capital, and is Louisiana's flagship university. LSU has a beautiful campus with more than 1300 live oaks and is one of the few universities with land-, sea-, and space-grant status. Our rich multicultural location on the Lower Mississippi River near the Atchafalaya River Basin and the Gulf of Mexico provides many opportunities for innovative studio investigations, scholarly activities, and funded projects in landscape architecture.

RRSLA is committed to expanding excellence in landscape architectural education through critical thinking, iterative making, innovation, and theory rooted in the context of the American South. The school is known for its blend of critical, creative, and technical expertise. We are located within LSU's College of Art and Design and offer BLA and MLA degrees. The college also offers bachelor's and master's degrees in architecture, art history, studio art, and interior design, and an interdisciplinary Doctor of Design degree.

College resources include an arboretum, a fabrication lab, a woodshop, computer labs, and technology including robots, drones, 3D printers, CNC machines, laser cutters, and virtual reality headsets. LSU's Hilltop Arboretum is a 14-acre laboratory with native plants, a nursery, and extensive community programming. There are opportunities for interdisciplinary research and teaching through LSU's Coastal Ecosystem Design Studio, which brings together scientists, engineers, and designers to develop nature-based solutions to storms and flooding. The school offers many opportunities for off-campus experiences for students including internships and both domestic and international field trips. The school also maintains an extensive and engaged alumni network that generously supports the school's academic programs and students.

Qualifications :

Candidates should have a record of excellence in teaching, mentoring, and / or professional practice in landscape architecture. They must have at least one degree in landscape architecture and a terminal degree in landscape architecture or an allied discipline. The school welcomes applicants without the terminal degree, but with expertise in any aspect of landscape architecture. Preference will be given to those with expertise in design foundations, grading and stormwater management, building information modeling, and other emerging elements of the landscape architecture profession. Candidates should have teaching experience and a strong track record of professional practice.
