The Department of Human Centered Design (HCD) integrates analog and digital knowledge, tools, methods, and creative processes from design, humanities, social sciences, engineering, and physical sciences to address real-world challenges and enrich people and their environments (https://www.human.cornell.edu/hcd). We are seeking to appoint an exceptional design-research scholar at Associate or Full Professor rank in any of the following or related foci:
• Emerging Technologies for Design—developing, testing, and understanding the place of interactive, adapative, and sustainable technologies and methods in creative processes, practices, and design outputs (materials, systems, tools, and digital fabrication & manufacturing).
• Smart Interfaces: developing and testing smart interfaces manifested as near-body environments, objects, and spaces that enhance human-agent-materials relations.
• Design of Interactive Systems across Scales, from materials, to wearables, to objects, to indoor environments, to the outdoors (and beyond).
• Design with Embedded Artifical Intelligence supporting and augmenting human activity, collaboration, and behaviour in ethical and inclusive ways.
• Hybrid Design: bio-design and bio-digital hybrids that enhance human-agent-materials relations.
Qualifications:
The new faculty member for this senior-level position is expected to have developed an externally-funded research program of international distinction with a deep, impactful record of reseach publications, teaching excellence, and design distinctions. Responsibilities include teaching undergraduate and graduate courses, advising B.S., M.A., M.S., and Ph.D. students, and providing service to the department and university community. Applicants must have earned a Ph.D. in an area of design, architecture, media arts, human computer interaction, robotics, computer science, materials science & engineering, biological systems, or another area suggested by the foci listed above.
Housed in state-of-the-art teaching and laboratory facilities, HCD has strong connections to several other units on campus, including Computer and Information Science, Mechanical Engineering, and Human Development and Psychology. These connections support the department’s aims to design for real-world challenges and opportunities and advance understanding of how people and their environments interact and are enabled, supported, and augmented by design. Cornell has a historical commitment to educating “any person…in any study” and strives to offer a high quality of life, providing a collegial and supportive atmosphere on campus. Beyond campus, Ithaca is in the heart of the Finger Lakes region, and both Cornell and Ithaca offer a vibrant cultural life and a wide range of sporting and outdoor activities close at hand. Cornell also seeks to meet the needs of dual career couples, with both its own Dual Career program and membership in the Upstate New York Higher Education Recruitment Consortium to assist in dual career searches.
