It empowers its students to shape the contemporary world through critical practice, studio-based learning, research and engagement. The aim of the School of Design is to create a design culture engaged in ongoing debate on all aspects of design; a culture that thrives on new ideas, new ways of doing things and new areas of exploration. We encourage our students to experiment and take risks in order to carve new aesthetic paths and make technical innovations within, and beyond, their design discipline. We have extensive links with Industry, and students regularly work on live projects within a commercial, social or cultural context. The College seeks to ensure that our design students develop the necessary creative, technical, thinking and interpersonal skills to become highly employable graduates, entrepreneurs and thought leaders. This post will be an integral part of the academic staff within the School and College. Lecturing staff actively contribute to the teaching and learning, research and commercialization/knowledge transfer and internationalization agendas of the College. MA in Circular by Design The MA in Circular by Design is currently a part-time programme for those who want to build a deep and nuanced understanding of sustainability and circularity and practically apply that knowledge to their own practice. The programme combines theory and practice and champions collaborative and pre-competitive processes. The MA reimagines design as a catalyst for systemic change challenging linear production models and enabling regenerative, life-centered approaches to materials, ecosystems, society, and culture. It supports creative practitioners in interrogating and disrupting current systems and in designing alternatives that are circular by intent. The Assistant Lecturer will be part of a cross disciplinary team of academics responsible for the delivery and ongoing development of NCAD’s Circular by Design programmes.

The role will also contribute to related undergraduate and postgraduate awards, and support the integration of sustainable, circular, and regenerative design across NCAD’s wider curriculum. NCAD recognizes the urgent need to build circular innovation capacity across Ireland’s design sector. Its programmes aim to equip the next generation of changemakers with the skills, knowledge, and mindset to rethink the purpose, processes, and outcomes of design. The MA in Circular by Design and its constitutions programmes (Prof Cert and Prof Dip) as well as modules housed within our BA provision contribute directly to this mission. Combining theory and practice, our Circular by Design provision invites participants to engage through seminars, collaborative mapping, speculative design tasks, and peer dialogue. Using their own creative practice, research, and experience, participants will critically explore local and global challenges, positioning themselves as changemakers within their professional contexts. Through live, industry-informed projects, participants collaborate with peers and external partners such as designers, policy makers, retailers, manufacturers, circular innovators, social enterprises, and local councils.Together, they will question, critique, test and innovate new circular ecosystems, tools, products, and services. Focused on rethinking design processes, ecosystems, and creative tools to drive change, our Circular by Design provision supports those who wish to develop a deep and nuanced understanding of sustainability and circularity within the creative sector. It encourages the application of knowledge to design practice, policymaking, and addressing ecological and social challenges across interconnected systems.
