The role, based in Fayetteville, calls for a “strategic, collaborative, and visionary leader” to lead the architecture and design school. Among the responsibilities will be to develop a vision for the future of the school, express a unified and visible identity, and elevate the contributions to research and creative activity within the school and university. Candidates must have a record of scholarly achievement in research and/or practice.
