Assistant Professor—Fine & Performing Arts
We are currently seeking applications for an Assistant Professor in Digital Art to join the Fine and Performing Arts Department in fall 2023. Preferred candidates will be practicing artists who are committed to undergraduate teaching and have an interest in working with neurodiverse students. Opportunities for course design are anticipated. Qualified applicants will have experience teaching courses in digital photography, animation, video, emerging media, and/or other 2D/4D disciplines based on their background and interests.
The successful candidate will contribute to the vision and curriculum for the B.A. in Integrated Arts, which teaches core principles inherent to the performing and studio arts: context, craft, and critique. The Fine and Performing Arts department also supports the development of creative expression for all Landmark College students as part of the general education program.
Assistant professors are expected to be active community members; to engage in scholarly work in their field or in the scholarship of teaching and learning; and to pursue professional development. We are intentionally building a community that is diverse in areas including and not limited to ethnicity, gender, gender identity, national origin, neurodiversity, physical ability, race, and religion.
