Job Duties

The department’s curriculum integrates architectural design, history, theory, technology, and professional practice, preparing students for careers in high-quality professional firms as well as for leadership roles in public agencies and the private sector.

In collaboration with its sister programs—Landscape Architecture, City & Regional Planning, and Construction Management—the Department emphasizes an interdisciplinary educational approach, fostering critical thinking, integrated design strategies, and technical precision.

The successful candidate must demonstrate a commitment to the mission of the School of Architecture and Planning (SA+P) and Morgan State University, including excellence in teaching, scholarly research or creative work, and service. A strong potential for independent research or creative practice is expected, with a research agenda that aligns with the candidate’s instructional focus areas.

Responsibilities include teaching architectural design studios at the undergraduate and/or graduate level and offering coursework in one or more additional subject areas within the architecture curriculum, such as Design Fundamentals, Sustainable Design, Global Architectural History, or Building Materials and Technology, based on departmental needs.
