Sign in to save Tenure or Tenure-Track Faculty and Program Director in Sustainable Real Estate Development >>> at Tulane University School of Medicine.
The School of Architecture at Tulane University is seeking qualified candidates in Real Estate and Urban Development at the rank of Assistant or Associate Professor (tenure-track/tenured).
The program seeks to hire one or more faculty members who can teach core real estate courses at both the undergraduate and graduate levels, including lectures, seminars, and studio courses. In particular, the program seeks applications from scholars who can competently teach introductory core courses in real estate development, real estate finance, urban policy, proforma modeling, and/or housing policy and finance, among other core courses.
Candidates may originate in any number of disciplinary fields, including urban planning, urban economics, geography, or real estate finance. Candidates for this tenured or tenure-track position are expected to have obtained a doctorate in an allied field of the built environment. Candidates with practical professional experience are encouraged to apply. Candidates without a doctorate may be considered for a Professor of Practice appointment.
The specialized research areas for the real estate faculty include climate change, sustainability science, community development, and affordable housing. However, the program welcomes faculty candidates who advance a wide array of research inquiries inside and outside these concentrations. The program in real estate is home to 300 undergraduate students (Bachelor of Science in Real Estate (B.S.R.E.) and 20 graduate students (Masters of Sustainable Real Estate Development (M.S.R.E.D.)). Faculty are expected to support advising and service responsibilities consistent with all appointed full-time faculty. The real estate program is particularly interested in developing career-centered curricular modules that help students transition into the real estate job market.
This search expects to identify a new Director of the Real Estate Program among the successful candidates. The real estate program was founded over a dozen years ago by a group of core faculty with a long-standing commitment to training real estate professionals engaged in tackling issues around the environment and climate change and the wealth gap and social
inequality. The Director sets the academic vision for the program and serves as its public face in outreach to potential students, professional colleagues, and partner organizations and institutions. The Director also works closely with the program's Associate Director(s), the Administrative infrastructure in the School of Architecture, and the Administrative Program Coordinators (APCs) to manage the administrative functions of the program itself. We are seeking extraordinary candidates for this role whose research, professional experience, and vision are ripe for leading the next generation of the program.
Salary and academic ranks will be commensurate with qualifications and experience. The expected starting date of the positions is between January 1, 2024, and July 1, 2024. For questions related to the real estate program, the School of Architecture and/or this search notice, please contact Dr. William Bradshaw, Professor of Practice of Sustainable Real Estate (bradshaw@tulane.edu).

We are known for our robust community outreach, design-build, and multi-disciplinary research initiatives that involve climate change, coastal and riparian crises, historic preservation, sustainable real estate development, and the challenges for social and environmental justice. The complex nature of this region provides ample opportunities for comparative global studies. For this reason, we expect Tulane’s contributions to be of urgent relevance.
Located in New Orleans, Tulane University is a tier-one research university in the United States, a member of the selected group of top research universities integrated in the AAU. The School is an innovator in the field of the built environment at multiple scales, from buildings to neighborhoods and from urban landscapes to regional planning. The City of New Orleans and the Mississippi Delta are our natural domains of research, with the social and ecological challenges of the region at the forefront of contemporary discourses in global cities. The city is home to a diverse community steeped in a long history of action and exchange. Our 15th President, Mike Fitts, has strong commitments to anti-racism that the Tulane School of Architecture has taken up in multiple ways. The Tulane School of Architecture is committed to climate action and is charting a path for climate change education across each of its representative programs. Social and climate justice are interconnected phenomena that demand a new ethic of the built and unbuilt environments that is reinforced by pioneering research, teaching, and service.
