The posting

Overview

The School of Industrial and Graphic Design (SIGD) at Auburn University invites candidates to apply for a non-tenure track Lecturer position. This is a full-time position to commence in August 2027 with a three-year term and the possibility of a multi-year extension. The successful candidate should specialize in teaching freshman-level Drawing, 2-D, and 3-D fundamentals that emphasize formal elements and principles of art and design. The candidate will be responsible for teaching first-year courses to pre-graphic design students within a professional degree program and participating in service activities that support students in the School.

Graphic Design at Auburn

The Graphic Design (GDES) Program (http://cadc.auburn.edu/graphicdesign) at Auburn University prepares students to practice visual communication in a competitive global environment. Our nationally recognized, NASAD-accredited B.F.A. in Graphic Design emphasizes a systemic approach to design that prepares students to become versatile designers, art directors and economically viable professionals.

GDES students receive hands-on instruction in a professional studio environment that fosters a strong sense of community amoung students and faculty. Students establish a foundation in drawing, 2D/3D design, and typography in lower-level coursework experiences that include interactive design, user experience design (UI/UX), motion graphics, brand identity systems, publication design, packaging, illustration, and image-making.

The GDES program introduces students to the professional design community by hosting exhibitions, symposia, and guest lectures by industry leaders. An internship program provides students with real-world experience and networking opportunities.
