John Dollus Posted March 9, 2003 Share Posted March 9, 2003 From my experience, to secure a fulltime tenure track position in an NCARB accredited school of architecture, you will need a Masters degree in Fine Arts, Architecture or Education w/architectural registration.

Brian Cassil Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 Sounds like a familiar story. I too work full time in a large Architectural firm and teach a couple nights a week at a local community college. I also like teaching a lot more than working in the firm. I enjoy the interraction with students and other instructors, much less stress, no over nighters for days on end, and it even pays better! So what's not to like! However I would miss doing "real" work and so my dream is to teach full time and do freelance work on the side and I think I'm getting close to achieving that. I don't know that I will ever teach at a University Level, for one thing the Architecture schools around here discourage technology training as a part of thier curriclum, and for another I don't have a proffesional degree much less being accredited. But to tell you the truth I'm quite happy teaching at technical schools. I deal with people who are actually in the work field, and the students are much more dedicated to technology than they would be at a university level. Feel free to e-mail me as I would love to talk to someone else who so closely resembles my work schedule! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stefkeB Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 I work at the university, where I do research (programming C++ for a conceptual CAD-tool) and I teach a part of the CAD-courses, using AutoCAD & VIZ & Sketchup, to the students of architecture. I think halftime teaching and halftime production work would be a nice mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dollus Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 I teach classes in 3d AutoCAD and Max in a technical degree program at an NCARB school (night class). The pay is $800/class. For the graduate program, the administration hired an MIT graduate that got rid of all their VIZ/MAX licenses and teaches them to use Rhino.

kid Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 an MIT graduate that got rid of all their VIZ/MAX licenses and teaches them to use RhinoI like the sound of that. Rhino getting some respect in the architectural world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trey Posted March 11, 2003 Author Share Posted March 11, 2003 is anyone interested in doing research for 3D stuff at a research university? i have a m.arch from a pretty reputable university, but i don't have my license. doing 3D full-time has gottne me to stop working on my license and i am not sure when it's going to startup again. my greater goal is to be part of a arch univ. and research and teach. if the income is not good enough, freelance or teach more on the side at tech schools. anyone out there have similar goals? btw, those who do teach, how is the teaching pay?

Brian Cassil Posted March 12, 2003 Share Posted March 12, 2003 Here at the local community college I get 26.50 an hour. At the autodesk training center it depends on how many enrolees we get for each class. Starts at 26.50 and goes up to 35.00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
