We are seeking to recruit a highly experienced and passionate Lecturer to join our MA Design for Visual Communication course.
We believe that visual communication bridges graphic design for print, branding, spatial, motion design and immersive experiences. As a result, the course marries the application of fundamental graphic design principles with the exploration of craft and emerging visual technologies.
As a Lecturer, you will work closely with the Course Leader to design and deliver impactful unit content. You will guide students as they navigate and explore a range of tools, platforms, and software as well as developing their portfolios, research skills, and design practice.
You will play a key role in curriculum development, bringing fresh and innovative ideas to the course. Additionally, you will have the opportunity to forge partnerships with external collaborators and industry professionals, ensuring the curriculum remains relevant and forward-thinking.
We are seeking an individual with significant experience in graphic design and visual communication, whether from industry, academia, or a creative context. A passion for teaching at the postgraduate level and a strong enthusiasm for guiding and mentoring students are essential. You should also have a solid understanding of design research, including critical, reflexive, and speculative methods, and a keen interest in fostering research-led learning through workshops, lectures, and one-on-one support.
If you’re passionate about graphic design, visual communication, and inspiring the next generation of designers, we invite you to join our team and contribute to the continued success of this exciting and dynamic programme.
