HTW Berlin - University of Applied Science

course of studies: Game Design / Level Design:
*Department: Game Design * (BesGr. W2)

*KNr.: 334* 

We are seeking a professional designer for a faculty position with teaching
duties in the “Game Design” course of studies. The position requires the
appropriate artistic and design-oriented know how with demonstrated
experience in large-scale game productions on the international level.
Expected are substantial knowledge and practical experience within a
creative-technical development environment of digital games and interactive
consumer applications. The majority of the following fields should be
covered: level design, experience with Unreal Editor or similar level
editors, lighting, 3D software, animation, scripting, and creation of
interactive environments. Personal expertise may be in 3D design, animation,
or level design, but all these fields shall be taught. The artistic-design
competence will be evaluated by portfolio including work samples. The
portfolio should include the usual exponents such as games, models, and
videos on disc or digital data media (no exclusively online portfolios will
be accepted), as well as a precise account of personal achievements. This is
a fixed-term position for five years with an option for extension depending
on the future development of the course of study.

Given equal proficiency, severely handicapped applicants will be favored.

Requirements for the appointment:
Requirements for the appointment (academic, pedagogic and practical
professional qualifications) are determined according to § 100 of the Berlin
Higher Education Act (Berliner Hochschulgesetz). Pedagogic-didactic skills
resultant of comprehensive teaching experience gained in a previous position
are required and should be proven. It is expected that the successful
applicant is willing and able to conduct teaching sessions in the basic
subjects (some chosen courses being taught in English) as well as acquiring
and implementing applied research projects. As HTW is currently seeking to
increase the number of female professors, applications from female
candidates are actively encouraged. Severely disabled applicants shall
receive preference in the event of comparable suitability. A part-time
position may be considered under certain circumstances. If they do not do so
already, successful applicants are expected to take up residence in the City
State of Berlin. Foreign applicants should possess sufficient knowledge of
the German language.
