W3-Professorship »Architectural Space and Design«

starting 1st April 2025.

Your Future Responsibilities:

The professorship’s responsibility is the investigation and the imparting of architecture focused on con­version and transformation. Within the advancement of the faculty’s teaching and research pro-file, the professorship is of heightened importance, since the analysis of pre-shaped situations and their respective characteristics call for new concepts of spatial design that need to be advanced in teaching and research. Hereby, a special emphasis is put on the design of individual spaces, particu-larly with regard to complex spaces with increased design requirements. In practice and theory, the professorship »Architectural Space and Design« will attend to the phenomenon of space created by building. The professorship is integrated into the degree programmes of the Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism; future interdisciplinary formats are conceivable. As a professor, you are actively en-gaging in the academic self-government and work collegially within the community.

 

Your Qualifications and Competences:

• You fulfil the general requirements pertaining to § 84 of the Thuringian Higher Education Act (ThürHG).
• You have successfully completed a degree in architecture or a related field.
• You have pedagogical aptitude, usually demonstrated through university teaching experience.
• You impress with architectural design of excellent quality.
• You have completed works and projects that are indicative of an outstanding qualification with regard to architectonic work, as ascertained by works and projects executed under your responsibility as well as further subject-related achievements (such as publications, talks, contributions to exhibitions, or the professional discourse) 
• and/or you have scientific expertise within the advertised profile. Your particular ability for academic work is demonstrated by a doctoral degree in a field related to the professorship as well as additional scientific achievements.
• You are able to teach in German and English.
• Ideally, in addition, you are experienced in research, in the obtaining of research projects and in the execution of research and development projects.
• You understand leadership as an integral part of your work and have an appreciative and furthering management style.

Our Offer to You:

Bauhaus-Universität Weimar offers excellent working conditions in a lively scientific and artistic en­vironment, embedded in the outstanding living conditions in the city of culture Weimar. Addi-tionally, we support you with manifold advanced training and development opportunities.

The professorship is to be filled on a full-time basis (employee or civil servant status). However, the advertised job opening is also suitable to be filled by two people simultaneously (shared professor-ship, job sharing). In this case, a civil servant status is not possible and the employment relationship will be   50 % each. The applicants for a shared professorship submit a joint application and enclose a joint concept for their collaboration. Both candidates must fulfil the recruitment requirements for the position. An additional individual application is possible.

The Bauhaus-Universität Weimar places great importance on diversity and equal opportunities. We are committed to maintaining a family-friendly and non-discriminatory working environment and to pursuing a human resources policy which promotes gender equality and diversity. For this reason, we encourage applications from people from a wide variety of backgrounds and with diverse ranges of experience and biographies. The university’s strategic goals include increasing the proportion of women in teaching and research, and we therefore expressly welcome applications from qualified female academics. Equally qualified people with disabilities will be given preferential consideration.
