JOB: FTCC Position in Interactive Media Arts – Shanghai

NYU Shanghai is currently inviting applications for a full-time contract faculty position to join its program in Interactive Media Arts (IMA), an undergraduate liberal arts program in the practice and theory of interactive media.

IMA combines practice-based work with critical scholarship in the exploration of the social, cultural and aesthetic fundamentals of emerging media. With computation at its core, our curriculum includes but is not limited to creative programming, digital media creation (animation, VR/AR, and time-based media), physical computing and digital fabrication. Our seminars cover the theory, history and semiotics of emerging media, to create a measured balance to the applied component of the program.

This is an open rank Full-Time Continuing Contract Faculty (FTCC) position. Candidates must have completed a terminal degree by the time of appointment in September 2024. Typical appointments are on 3 year terms, with expected teaching loads of 4 courses per academic year. While we seek applications from candidates with an active research profile, successful candidates will be hired on the basis of teaching and service.
