SCAD Savannah seeks a full-time professor of interactive experience design to bring their expertise in cutting-edge digital design—whether in web, AI-driven systems, or extended reality (XR)—to inspire the next generation of creative technology leaders.

With world-class technology, immersive facilities, and a faculty of acclaimed professionals, SCAD offers unmatched preparation for students pursuing careers in interactive design, product strategy, and emerging technology. As a member of the interactive experience design faculty, you will join a dynamic, cross-disciplinary team dedicated to equipping students with both the visual design sensibility and the technical fluency required to thrive in fast-evolving creative industries.

The university seeks an accomplished candidate with professional experience in designing and deploying interactive systems. Ideal candidates will bring specialized expertise in one or more areas, such as:

  • XR: designing immersive AR/VR/MR experiences, spatial interfaces, and real-time 3D prototyping

A strong portfolio of shipped products, installations, or deployed experiences is essential, along with the ability to guide students through the full creative and technical process—from concept ideation and rapid prototyping to testing, iteration, and deployment.

In this role, you will:

  • Teach courses that balance design thinking, technical implementation, and industry-standard tools
  • Mentor students to produce portfolio-ready work that showcases their professional readiness
  • Collaborate with faculty across disciplines to foster innovative, interdisciplinary projects
  • Contribute to curriculum development that reflects current and emerging industry practices

This is an opportunity to shape the future of interactive design education while working in a collaborative, creatively charged environment that champions both experimentation and professional rigor.
