University of Texas at Austin: School of Architecture - Emerging Scholar: 2024-2026 Land, Space and Identity in the Americas Fellowship

Space and place operate within and against social and political forces like systems of land use, jurisprudence, market economies and hierarchical governance. This reality challenges designers, planners and historians to better understand and interpret the root causes of social disparities that are too often veiled by the apolitical language of formalist architectural theories and neoliberal models of urban development. In order to promote planning and design approaches that can address our most pressing needs and challenges, we must learn to ground new speculations in a nuanced interpretation of the cultural practices that embody the diverse sets of historical knowledge, creative abilities, and lived experiences contained within the Americas. This fellowship encourages an innovative consideration of the spatial histories of the Americas that are implicit in our diverse present.

• Hi all -- since there is a general discussion section now, I thought I'd drop a link to a data project that I do with the listings from this site. Thought it might be interesting to people here since it allows you to see data in aggregate, across time, by field, tenure status, etc. --smtsmtsm
  • -Thanks so much for this! It reaffirms my belief that jobs are dwindling this year. Ugh. We need a support group.
  • I second the thanks and the idea of a support group!
  • Wow thank you for sharing this project! It makes me want to go back and fill in my experiences from previous years for posterity and the sake of the data

First / Second Interview Discussion:

• Hello. Looking for any insight into first round interview process experiences. Please share? What has been the general turn around for rejection or moving onwards to second round (campus visit)?
  • ---In response to your question, I think each search is different, but usually committees will take about 2 weeks between their last Zoom interview and inviting candidates for a campus visit. Sometimes less, sometimes more, but I think 2 weeks is the average.
    • Thank you. First year of apps for me, so any insight useful. It all seems so varied and mysterious?
• Interested in hearing people's experiences about first, second round interviews and timelines. Also do first (only)'s exist for tenure positions?
