JOHN BOUSFIELD DISTINGUISHED VISITORSHIP IN
PLANNING
The Graduate Planning Program at the University of Toronto
invites applications from accomplished practitioners and scholars
who wish to contribute to the teaching and research activities of
the Program. Applications are sought for Winter term, 2014(which
begins January 6) for visitors interested in teaching a graduate
level course on some aspect of Environmental Planning. We are
particularly interested in visitors who have expertise in Planning
for Climate Change, Cities the Environment and Resilience, or
Environmental Impact Assessment. The Visitorship also supports
research activities and visitors typically give at least one
lecture or talk open to the public as well as members of the
department. Specific activities will be negotiated with the
successful application.
ABOUT THE VISITORSHIP:
The John Bousfield Distinguished Visitorship in Planning was
established through a major donation to and a matching grant by the
University of Toronto. The Visitorship honours John Bousfield, a
distinguished Canadian urban planner now in his 60th year of
professional practice, and enables the Planning Program to bring to
the University accomplished individuals who can teach, give public
lectures and participate in collaborative research projects on
issues important to the field of planning.
The Bousfield position is intended to offer the visitors an
opportunity for research, writing and reflection, while also
enhancing the learning experience of students in the Program in
Planning, providing diverse and innovative perspectives on
contemporary planning issues and enhancing the relations between
the Planning Program and the community at large.
Located in one of the most diverse cities in North America, the
Planning Program offers its students a dynamic, interdisciplinary
blend of practical knowledge and critically engaged theory.
Information on the Program in Planning can be obtained from its
website (http://geography.utoronto.ca/graduate-planning/).
ELIGIBILITY, EXPECTATIONS AND HOW TO APPLY:
The Planning Program is seeking applications from practitioners
and scholars who have substantial planning experience in public,
private, non-profit or community organizations, in local, national
or international venues. The program especially encourages
applications from those whose experiences and viewpoints are
underrepresented within planning.
The Planning Program can support a one semester visitorship with
a stipend of up to CDN $12,000, depending on the duration and
intensity of the period in residence at the University.
Applications consisting of a curriculum vitae and a
two-page plan of the individual’s proposed activities (including a
requested stipend) should be sent by email attachment to Professor
Virginia Maclaren, Chair, Department of Geography and Program in
Planning (jobs@geog.utoronto.ca) by November 14, 2013. Please
direct any inquiries about the position to Professor Paul Hess,
Associate Chair and Director, Graduate Programs in Planning,
(hess@geog.utoronto.ca).
