Tenured/Tenure-Track: Assistant and Associate Professor
College Station, Texas
Employer: Texas A&M University
Industry: Landscape Architecture and Urban Planning
Salary: Competitive
Job type: Full-Time
The Department of Landscape Architecture & Urban Planning (LAUP) in the College of Architecture at Texas A&M University invites applicationsfortwofull-time,9-month faculty positions to begin in Fall 2025. We are seeking one tenure-track Assistant Professor and one Associate Professor with Tenure Review Upon Hire (TRUH).
The successful candidates will conduct original research in their area(s) of expertise, teach core and elective courses in our undergraduate and graduate Urban Planning programs, mentor and advise PhD students, and provide service to the department, college, university, and community. We seek candidates whose research and teaching build upon, complement, or enhance the strengths of our current faculty.
We are particularly interested in candidates who can teach economic development, urban technology (including data visualization), environmental planning, or planning law, and whose research contributes to knowledge and practice related to equity, urban regeneration, mobility, or community resilience. We welcome a range of rigorous research methodologies, especially from those whose work engages underserved, disadvantaged, or vulnerable communities.
The ideal candidates will work closely with faculty and students within Bachelor's, Master's, and Ph.D. programs and may also teach across the disciplines found in the Department. The Department of Landscape Architecture and Urban Planning is one of the few in the country that is home to three disciplines- land and property development, urban planning, and landscape architecture-all of which are critical in the creation and delivery of healthy, efficient, resilient, equitable, and accessible places. Each program's faculty members are composed of nationally and internationally recognized urban planning scholars. Each year, they contribute millions of dollars of funding to support students through a variety of research centers, laboratories, and institutes at the university.
The Department of Landscape Architecture and Urban Planning includes 44 full-time faculty members and offers the following six degrees: the Bachelor of Science in Urban and Regional Planning, the Bachelor of Landscape Architecture (accredited), the Master of Land & Property Development, the Master of Landscape Architecture (accredited), the Master of Urban Planning (accredited), and the Ph.D. in Urban and Regional Sciences. We also offer a number of articulated and dual degrees. This combination of disciplines offers unparalleled opportunities for interdisciplinary research and teaching.
The Department has strong ties to the world-renowned Hazard Reduction & Recovery Center, the Texas A&M Transportation Institute, the Center for Housing and Urban Development (including one of four HUD Centers of Excellence in Hispanic Housing Studies), Texas Target Communities (an award-winning outreach and engagement program), the Center for Health Systems & Design, the Center for Heritage Conservation, Texas Sea Grant, Texas A&M Real Estate Center, and other centers and certificate programs in related fields within and beyond the College of Architecture. Support for sponsored research is excellent.
The College of Architecture at Texas A&M University is one of the largest of its kind in the United States. Over 130 faculty members in the departments of Architecture, Landscape Architecture & Urban Planning (LAUP), and Construction Science serve over 2,000 students in 15 degree programs. These cover the entire spectrum of disciplines engaged in the planning, designing, and building of the built environment.
The third-largest university in the United States, Texas A&M University is home to more than 60,000 undergraduate students and nearly 17,000 graduate students. More than 6,000 students come from more than 50 countries other than the U.S. It is a Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI). Texas A&M is a land, space, and sea grant institution; one of only 24 institutions in the nation to hold this triple designation. It is highly ranked as a "best value" for students and is highly regarded for its programs that serve veterans. It has the largest and most active network of former students in the world.
Nearly 300,000 in population, Bryan/College Station offers a high quality of life with a relatively low cost of living. The Bryan/College Station area is in the center of the Texas Urban Triangle-home to more than 13 million people in four metropolitan areas (all within easy driving distance) including Houston, Dallas, Austin, and San Antonio, all of which are among the top ten cities in the nation in population. The challenges currently facing Texas related to climate change, natural hazards, transportation, demographic composition, and economic change foreshadow the changes that the rest of the nation will experience over the next 30 years, making it a perfect laboratory for testing hypotheses related to urban and land development and management.

The candidate should be qualified to teach core and elective courses in the Planning curriculum. Professional experience as a planner or allied discipline and AICP designation are highly valued.
