Professor/Associate Professor/Lecturer in Architecture German University in Cairo

We invite applications for a full-time faculty position in the Visual Design Department, specializing in Computational Design. The department integrates cutting-edge computational methodologies with traditional design principles, fostering a multidisciplinary approach to visual design and Architecture. Our curriculum encompasses a diverse range of courses, including design studios, computational design theories, digital fabrication, parametric modeling, and interactive media. We emphasize the integration of technology and design, preparing students to address contemporary challenges in the visual design landscape and appropriate use of AI in architecture and building.

The successful candidate will have expertise in computational design, with a focus on areas such as algorithmic design, generative design, digital fabrication, interactive media, Ai and building. We are particularly interested in applicants who can bridge the gap between architecture, technology and design, applying computational methods to create innovative building solutions.

Key Responsibilities:

• Teach and Lead Design Studios: Develop and lead design studios that integrate computational design methodologies, encouraging students to explore algorithmic and generative design processes.
• Develop and Teach Advanced Courses: Offer elective courses on specialized computational design topics at both undergraduate and graduate levels, such as parametric modeling, digital fabrication, and interactive media.
• Supervise Research: Guide bachelor s, master s, and Ph.D. theses in computational design and related fields.
• Research and Collaboration: Initiate and conduct innovative research activities, contributing to the department s research profile in computational design. Engage in interdisciplinary collaboration with other departments and both national and international institutions.
• Curriculum Development: Contribute to the ongoing development and enhancement of the visual design curriculum, integrating emerging technologies and methodologies.
