College of DesignAbout the Department
Design education is more than an attempt to teach a set of technical skills. The environment – including the spaces in which people live and work, the products they consume, and the messages they receive – has a powerful impact on how humans function in a society. Good design requires attention and sensitivity to social, economic, political, cultural and behavioral issues. The aim of all curricula in the College of Design is to develop the designers perception, knowledge, skills, and problem-solving abilities.
The College of Design offers comprehensive undergraduate and graduate study in architecture, art + design, graphic design, industrial design and graduate studies in landscape architecture, through several degree programs, including the PH.D. in Design. The college employs a selective admissions process that ensures a highly motivated design community. As a result, entering design students consistently rank at the top of academic achievement at the University, and their graduation rate is the highest at NC State.
This position is situated within the main administrative management division within the College of Design. Student Services provides services for all levels of students, from undergraduate through graduate programs.
Essential Job Duties
Duties include:
- Serves as primary contact for written and verbal communications related to these programs.
- Manage a competitive undergraduate admission process. This highly competitive selection process entails screening applications based on specific criteria, extraction and summarization of key information to identify qualified and/or deficient applicants.
- Must effectively communicate with applicants to coordinate personal reviews with faculty; organize and facilitate Admission Review Day; notify applicants and the University Undergraduate Admission Office of decisions; counsel denied applicants of academic options.
- Participate in the management of the undergraduate electronic portfolio process.
- Initiate and implement specific departmental programs for prospective undergraduate student visitations, Open House and New Student Orientation.
- Research and develop multi-faceted reports which impact admissions, retention, graduation and accreditation efforts.
- Actively identify issues that impact student enrollment and academic performance (i.e. academic progress, Progress Towards Degree, graduation clearance, etc.)
- Assist in planning and implement College graduation, awards receptions and special college events.
- Collaborate with internal department heads, faculty and Assistant Dean in the delivery of student and academic services.
