The new School includes graduate level professional and post-professional programs in Architecture and Landscape Architecture, together with an undergraduate program in Environmental Design. The School has a full-time faculty of 26, 10 staff and over 300 outstanding and diverse students. Research strengths cover a broad range and often have an interdisciplinary emphasis. UBC invites individuals capable of bringing vision, energy and leadership to the School and who are committed to exploring the full potential of its new institutional setting. The School Director acts as primary academic and administrative officer of the School, coordinating the varied School programs and activities. The Director manages the School’s budget, provides academic leadership to all School faculty members, and takes a lead role in engaging professional and community interests at local, national and international levels. The Director reports to the Dean of Applied Science and is expected to maintain a leadership role in a variety of University and professional settings.
