To the Search Committee, Dean of the College of Design
Office of the Dean December 17, 2015 To the Search Committee, Dean of the College of Design, Construction and Planning at the University of Florida Dear Search Committee, I am very pleased to submit my application for the position of Dean of the College of Design, Construction and Planning at the University of Florida. I am a creative and optimistic administrator who gained appreciation and respect with effective leadership skills and a wide perspective on the numerous and diverse components of a public research University. Important to me is the identification and implementation of a transformative vision with broader strategic objectives, efficient organizational models, and inspiring and motivating milieus. The opportunity to be an engaging, energetic contributor to the future leadership of the College of Design, Construction and Planning is very compelling. I am excited by the possibility to be an effective voice and visible advocate within the University of Florida and its exceptional research community. With this letter of interest I am enclosing my curriculum vitae and a bio-narrative. In my current position as Associate Dean for Graduate Programs at the College of Architecture, Texas Tech University (TTU), I provide direction combined with new initiatives and aims through interaction with faculty, students, staff, and University and College administrators. My decision-making and dealings are inclusive and thoughtful, valuing entrepreneurship, collaboration and performance. I deal with challenges on a daily basis, which I approach with an open mind and well-organized solutions at many levels. It is vital for me to be an effective communicator to ensure the successful attainment of University goals, and create a trusting, transparent and constructive working environment. I focus on people and I pay attention to the details. I am dedicated in promoting academic quality and faculty reputation, mentoring and helping faculty to establish standards of excellence. The position of Associate Dean for Graduate Programs in the College of Architecture was newly created three years ago in alignment with the University aspirations. After serving as Chair of Instruction from 2010 to 2012, I accepted this role with enthusiasm and with the desire to bring a fresh perspective for the future growth of our College. Texas Tech received National Research University status in 2012 and continues its path towards the evolution as a Tier One institution and a member of the Association of American Universities (AAU). As described in the TTU 2010-2020 Strategic Plan, a Tier One University is characterized by a set of criteria, which includes a distinguished faculty with a high profile in scholarship and creative activities, exceptional student body and excellent graduate programs. The University Strategic Plan places great emphasis on increasing a diverse population of outstanding students, particularly graduate and non-traditional students, on enhancing teaching excellence to attract the best faculty in the world, advancing knowledge and high research to leverage global competiveness, expanding our outreach and community engagement, and increasing funding and resources. Administrative responsibilities and functions Areas that report to me are: Administrative Council, Strategic Planning, Curriculum, Digital NAAB (National Architectural Accrediting Board) Accreditation, Graduate Programs Review (University), Faculty Teaching Schedule, Visiting Faculty hires, Academic Graduate Programs – Master of Architecture, Master of Science in Architecture and Ph.D. development, Graduate Certificates, Graduate Advising, Graduate Student Assistantships and Fellowships, Graduate Students Recruitment, Graduate Applications - digital process, Influence on Financial Planning, Faculty Budget, College Culture and Events. Number of direct reports: 7 (I am the Chair of the Administrative Council composed of: Associate Dean for Research, Building Director, Advisor, IT Manager, Budget Director, Administrative Unit Coordinator, Development Director) + 40 members of Graduate Faculty + Director of Academic Programs + Graduate Advisor = Total 49 My responsibilities include the development of the NAAB accredited professional 5-½ year Master of Architecture (M. Arch) and 4 Graduate Certificates in Digital Design and Fabrication, HealthCare Facilities Design, Historic Preservation and Urban and Community Design. I am also responsible for the postprofessional Master of Science in Architecture with 2 newly created Specializations in Digital Design and Fabrication (DDF) and in Urban and Community Design (UCD). A Specialization in Health and Design is in preparation and will be offered in fall 2016. I am coordinating the interdisciplinary PhD program in Land-use Planning, Management and Design, and I recently presented a reconfigured proposal to the University. I work very closely with the Dean and the Associate Dean for Academics to develop the College Curriculum and to attain the school’s teaching performance criteria, strategic planning and program learning objectives. With the Associate Dean for Academics, I assign faculty teaching schedules. The two of us also direct hiring of Instructors and Visiting Assistant Professors. While guiding faculty in the implementation of the new 2014 NAAB criteria in the curriculum, I provide direction in preparation for 2016 Accreditation as well as developing the new curriculum Matrix for the College. I contributed significantly to the writing of the APR report for the NAAB and along with the Dean, I review the SPC evidence for our Lubbock, El Paso and Houston programs. My proposal was instrumental to the decision to adopt a model for Digital Accreditation, placing our College as one among few in the nation meeting this standard. In March 2015 the College went through a comprehensive Graduate Programs Review, which is scheduled every six years and required by the University. A team of TTU internal and external members from outside peer institutions visited the College and assessed our Graduate Programs. I was in charge of directing the Review for the College, providing a comprehensive report of the past six years of operations, coordinating the set up of the building with displays and exhibitions of work, and organizing the team visit’s schedule. I prepared a complete dossier with materials as evidence of departmental functionality, budget and resources, student data, faculty productivity and curriculum effectiveness. Additionally, I have a major role in policy formation and I currently work closely with the College of Architecture Curriculum Committee. Other major tasks include the chairing of the Administrative Council, acting as an executive member of the Dean’s Council, and serving in key University functions as a member of the University Strategic Planning Committee, the International Affairs Council, the STEM Advisory Board, and as an internal reviewer of the Department of Design Graduate Programs. 2 My position allows me to have an influence on budgetary and financial planning and on fund raising and institutional development projects. The Dean, the Associate Dean for Academics and I meet on a monthly basis with our Budget Director to discuss and plan our resource allocations, staff and faculty needs and program funds distribution. Throughout my career, I have been involved in seeking external funds and resources at many levels. As a faculty and professional architect, I developed my own expertise in grantwriting of different kinds, for instance a NSF STEM grant proposal as P.I. in collaboration with the Department of Mathematics & Statistics at Texas Tech University, or the FY13 Internal Competitive Funding Opportunity to Advance Scholarship in the Creative Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences, and the Regione Veneto Public Research Grant, Industrial Research, Development and Technology Transfer in stone and marble manufacturing. Since beginning at the TTU College of Architecture in 2008, I submitted grant and funding proposals for a total of $ 6,700,000. Although it is part of the Dean’s job to be able to make requests, as Associate Dean I have personally participated in fund raising and institutional development projects. In this regard, I co-authored the Strategic Plan and Vision for the future of the TTU College of Architecture, with a proposal for an Interdisciplinary Fabrication Lab that includes plans for a facilities expansion, equipment needs, and a Metal-Wood Shop and Digital Fabrication Shop reorganization, with a new layout and the new construction of additional spaces. The accurate and in depth documentation was presented to the Provost, the University Administration and to several private donors. The funding request was for $ 6 million. Since 2013, we have generated $1.75 million in grants and funding from private foundations, Texas Tech University, and the state of Texas. I enjoyed the experience of traveling with our College’s Development Officer as a representative of the Dean and on those occasions, while I had the chance to meet alumni and private donors, I have been instrumental in the orientation of their gifts and donations. I also work very closely with faculty to expedite external research and entrepreneurial collaborations with the profession and the industry, supporting teams with student participation and promoting innovative, creative and globally engaged initiatives. Our Graduate Certificates and the new Master of Science specializations are acting as attractors for graduate recruitment, increasing enrollment and meeting institutional goals for revenue generation. I am currently working on a new M.S. specialization in Critical Practice and I am looking into the deliverables of new on-line courses tracking a complete on-line Certificate for traditional and non-traditional students and/or professionals. There are many ways to augment support for a College and the key is to be creative in what you do and spark convincing initiatives. Striving to prepare our students for a professional career, I am dedicated to the expansion of our graduate external programs including: our award winning Practicum+Studio program (NCARB Award Winner), the Residency program, the experience based Atelier Studios, and the Visiting Critics (Marfa) Studio. These educational opportunities are crucial to establish relationships with top national and international firms and they significantly contribute to the enhancement of the College’s reputation. As tangible results, prestigious firms participate in our studios, they sponsor students and in many cases they support the College with gifts. Most importantly, after our 7-months required Practicum + Studio program, 99% of our students receive a job offer. I also work very closely with the Dean and the Associate Dean for Academics on the development of our El Paso program, funded by a $ 6 million STEM grant. Over the past few years we have increased the number of students in our program from 25 to 75, most of whom will transfer to Lubbock after graduating with the Bachelor of Science in Architecture from the El Paso campus. The El Paso program generates much revenue for the College and I directly work with the Director on potentiating their curriculum in close alignment with ours, in order to prepare students at the undergraduate level to be more successful for admission into the graduate program in Lubbock. 3 Financial help is crucial to recruit students and our College cannot yet afford enough Teaching Assistant or Graduate Part Time Instructor positions, which would support students with fees and benefits. I am responsible for the assignment of College funds for graduate assistantships and for the allocation of the Graduate School’s recruitment assistantships and fellowships. This requires an efficient coordination with Graduate School unit, our program Directors and Advisors. One of my contributions to the efficiency of the organizational structure has also been the restructuring of our graduate admissions policy and requirements, working on a more flexible and completely digital application process, now mostly centralized in the College of Architecture. Curricular development and review/ Formation of new programs and reinvigoration of existing curricula In my administrative career, I have initiated new programs that rapidly gained national reputation, promoted interdisciplinary collaborations for teaching and research projects, and supported proposals for e-learning and on-line courses. I am proactive in national, international and diverse recruitment (faculty and students), and in seeking and managing a broad range of external resources. The growing visibility and recognition of the CoA graduate programs at the national and international level reflects a rewarding path of beneficial changes. I have focused strongly on the expansion of the scope and quality of our graduate programs that reflects student success and enhances career preparation. Under my leadership, over the past three years, we had a 15% increased graduate enrollment, an 80% increase of international students and this year our graduate applications increased by 20%. At Texas Tech University, the Master of Architecture qualifies the graduates to begin acquiring experience in areas of architectural practice towards licensure. A Graduate Certificate has become an efficient way to encourage students to develop useful, career-building expertise within the structure of a first professional degree in Architecture. The four tracks offer substantive opportunities for student-based research that have the potential to contribute to specialized knowledge associated with the discipline of Architecture. The Graduate Certificate programs have been widely successful, where typically more than 50% of the NAAB accredited first professional Master of Architecture students are enrolled in our specialties. More than 60% of our undergraduate students from the CoA pre-professional Bachelor of Science in Architecture (the undergraduate portion of our M.Arch) decide to continue their graduate studies with us. I strongly believe that the success of both the curricula (grad and undergrad) is strictly related. In my role as Professor and level Coordinator, I always aimed to instill the importance of exceptional design foundations. From an administrator’s perspective, I do not see our graduate programs’ content as a separate entity from the undergraduate sequence. Based on this inclusive approach, I implemented instructional tasks involving our first two years of the curriculum, where our most talented and advanced students nurture and mentor the youngest and act as role models. Each semester, for example, students towards the end of their Digital Design and Fabrication Certificate are hired to take part in assignments and tutorials and assist faculty with the instruction of Digital Media (DM) courses, which are offered in the first two undergraduate years. The reinvention and reconfiguration of the Digital Media course sequence that I implemented by proposing new syllabi and a new series of assignments have impacted the vision of the CoA’s curriculum. Students are exposed to the most innovative instruction models and latest digital tools and techniques. The DM courses apply strategies of visualization at different levels of complexity, introduce students to novel techniques for model making, and relate them to various geometric challenges. They are designed to work as the supporting courses tightly integrated with undergraduate design studios and the technology sequence. The teaching materials were recently published in the form of a textbook with the title Digital Media for Design, co-authored with Prof. Christian Pongratz. 4 One way in which curricula review and development have happened at the COA is through the Master of Science in Architecture with new specializations in Digital Design and Fabrication and in Urban and Community Design. A most recent effort is creating an interdisciplinary specialization in Design and Health in coordination with the Associate Dean for Research, a Health and Wellness Design expert and a newly-hired ad hoc Assistant Professor. We are currently defining the interdisciplinary study plan with two tracks of interest involving the College of Architecture, the TTU Health Sciences Center and the Department of Public Health. This specialization will be offered starting in fall 2016, including a special dedication to new forms of on-line instruction addressing non-traditional students. I was also responsible for revising the curriculum for the Master of Science in Architecture by reducing the number of credit hours to 34 and setting a common structure of semesters and courses for each specialization. A new idea was also incorporating the recent inclusion of International Studies linked to our Study Abroad programs and the Mexico and Shanghai topical studios. This new model received large consensus among the faculty and the students, increased the graduation rate and shortened time for graduation. It also established a solid pedagogical relationship with our Study Abroad Programs, a very familiar terrain for me. In fact, I direct the program in Verona, Italy, an intensive six week experience where undergraduate students in their 4th year and last studio are engaged with the redefinition of an urban open space operating as a form of design-based critical inquiry within a historical context. Through my personal professional network, I am participating with the Verona Studio to the International Marmomacc Stone Academy (with AIA, RIBA and RAIC), and to the Marmomacc International Exhibition of Stone Design and Technology in Verona, Italy since 2008. Vital to the program are also the relationships I have established with The Universita’ di Roma - La Sapienza, the Politecnico di Milano, the Istituto Universitario di Architettura di Venezia and the Universita’ degli Studi di Ferrara. All of these venues are important opportunities for international partnerships as vehicles to increase faculty and student visibility and reputation. Based on my expertise in computational design, material based processes and fabrication technologies, I co-founded the Digital Design and Fabrication Program (DDF). Positioned at the intersection of architecture, engineering and computation fields, the DDF Program’s sustainable, interdisciplinary direction and outreach to other departments at Texas Tech University develop applied research approaches. In the attempt to increase physical resources, one of the challenges was to provide space for sophisticated fabrication equipment that would be available to all Architecture students and for interdisciplinary use with Engineering and other units on campus. Since the DDF Program’s official inception in 2011, a 3-axis CNC router, three 3D printers, three laser cutters, a vacuum forming machine, a blade cutter, a wet-lab for casting, and a 6axis Robot have been added to the Shop state-of-the-art facilities. We are currently invested to the completion of the new Interdisciplinary Fabrication Lab expansion. The new facility is currently in the final design phase and it will provide 2,500 sq. ft. of additional lab space for cutting-edge technologies associated with the ongoing research of our faculty and students. As previously mentioned, The DDF Program is having a strong impact on the College curriculum, attracting an increasing number of national and international graduate students. Grant proposals, parametric workshops and collaborations are developed together with the departments of Computer Sciences, Industrial Engineering, Civil and Environmental Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Chemistry and Biochemistry, Mathematics and Statistics, School of Art, and externally with the Architecture Department at the University of Kaiserslautern, Germany and the Facolta’ di Architettura at the Universita’ di Ferrara, Italy. I strongly supported the cross listed course on Arch-Robotics jointly taught by faculty from Architecture and Engineering and attended by both Colleges’ students. One of my current tasks and interests is the re-design of our PhD in Land-use Planning, Management and Design. After a quantitative and qualitative assessment of the program involving faculty and currently enrolled students, I developed a first proposal for a newly reconfigured Ph.D. program in Architecture with three areas of specialization: 1- Design Studies; 2 - Building Technologies and Computation; and 3 – 5 Resource Management and Analysis. Students will thus be prepared for future transformative academic and professional roles through innovative approaches related to the built environment. The Program’s novel intent is to strengthen knowledge and education in Design while advancing scientific inquiry and scholarship about technology and issues of resource management and analysis, environmentally sustainable studies and land-use planning. The Graduate Programs Review report emphasized full support for this proposal, indicating that this would be a successful path to pursue. As part of future program plans, I am working with the Dean on a proposal for a Master of Science track in Critical Practice that would be attractive for professionals with an established practice, and who would like to earn a graduate degree reflecting on the critical evaluation of their professional experience. We have begun the process with our Pro-Practice and Graduate Urban Theory courses, both already delivered online, and we are looking into the deliverables of a complete on-line Certificate for traditional and non-traditional students and/or professionals. This is addressing one of the Higher Education priorities focusing on elearning and on-line degrees for non-traditional out-of-campus students. It requires a great effort from faculty and administration and a review of pedagogical approaches and teaching methods. In my daily work, I continuously encourage the interaction between design disciplines. For example, our Collaboration Studio requires integrated design teams that include students from three disciplines: Landscape Architecture, Interior Design and Architecture. This studio is also comprised of members from the College of Agriculture Science and Natural Resources, the College of Human Sciences and the College of Engineering. All projects are structured to encourage design interaction from problem formation to design development. Students are evaluated on their design skills as well as their ability to collaborate in teams. The Collaboration Studio is supported with funds to provide for a variety of outside consultants representing the student’s disciplines. Accomplishments and research agenda I am a licensed Architect, member of the Italian Order of Architects and an Associate AIA, a fully accomplished scholar with a multicultural experience, and the author of several books. As a principal of Pongratz Perbellini Architects, an international award-winning atelier, my research and design work are highly recognized and featured in professional and non-professional press related to the contemporary discourse of architecture. Upon my arrival at Texas Tech University, my previous academic and professional experiences have become integrated on several levels into the College of Architecture. I exemplify solid leadership in the College’s research agenda, promoting new collaborations with colleagues across Texas Tech, which forms the backbone for interdisciplinary national and international research grant proposals. A distinctive trait of my scholarly activities and achievements is the ability to cross over between academia, research and professional work supported by a number of important publications. I love to go beyond the classroom and span from high profile research explorations to real world practice in the field of building technology. My eclectic experience embeds multiple domains and a synergetic nature connecting a constantly evolving pedagogy to design inquiries. My work focuses on emergent computational strategies that require engagement with technology and promote novel design abilities and sensitivities. The knowledge of new digital models often activates unexpected interrelations between form, material, structure, space and their systems’ properties, behaviors and performances. I am particularly interested in the exploration of emergent materials identified as design processes with an expressive and, equally important, with a sustainable performativity. Relevant to me is the question of the relationship between material, form and space, between the building sciences and their 6 integrated systems and how this relationship affects a sensorial experience of architecture impacting the quality of our life. New multi-layered structural and formal complexities unfold from digital spatial organizations at the scale of details and with the application of various construction techniques. I place specific emphasis on the potentials triggered by 3D-datatransfer and new modes of production that explore digital customization and manufacturing of buildings and their components. The inquiry into modalities of digital-craft, fabrication processes and questions of material innovation allow me to revise and implement studies of material systems, their high-performances and intrinsic characteristics, which I engage early in the design process and are linked to CAM (computer-aided manufacturing) and CNC (computationally numerically controlled) techniques. Aspirations, opportunities and challenges Interdisciplinarity and new knowledge To educate world citizens, institutions such as the University of Florida must engage a transformative and evolving environment while still employing strategies that result in goals achieved. It is one of the Dean’s priorities to provide a unique educational experience for students by promoting vigorous curricula, creative learning opportunities and financial support. My mission would be to prepare students to engage with leading design practices through a deep understanding of integrated specialized areas associated with global issues. One of my top commitments would be the emphasis on interdisciplinary, cross college research initiatives and joint degree plans promoting collaborations with Departments and Colleges on campus, but also with national and international institutions. It is vital to develop potential external research opportunities in collaboration with the profession and the industry, supporting teams with faculty, practitioners and student participation. Future modes of practice demand the expansion of research skills, the sharing and distribution of experimentations towards the attainment of new knowledge. Environmental sustainability, economic and social challenges require a holistic re-thinking of the discipline of architecture, by blurring its boundaries and working across fields and expertizes. In response to the complexities of fast changing scenarios generated by technological advances combined with an increasing consciousness of the finite nature of our resources, it has become clear that a larger, integrated body of knowledge must inform new pedagogies and a responsible professional awareness is inevitable. The expansion of research on topics engaged with interdisciplinary models accelerates a wider impact. I believe it is vital to activate and support important venues where profession, industry and academia meet and share contents, research, and experiences. Global presence Strategies such as study abroad programs implemented in curricula, international studies, and partnerships with national and international universities and organizations create opportunities for recruitment, for innovative research approaches and life connections as part of the goal of being a global University where innovation and technology play a central role. New forms of instruction such as online, distance, asynchronous have grown rapidly in the past few years and require different approaches to ensure quality. Our locality and our presence are often related to a magical geographical condition made of the intersections of landscapes and energies, considered as characters encompassing urban and regional significance. How can we treat our location as a ground for research, as a place for inquiry and investigation on issues impacting the world? 7 Many institutions have an increasing number of programs abroad for a semester or more, and a large number of foreign students study in the U.S. Encouraging a worldview and the first-hand knowledge of a foreign culture, the CoA at Texas Tech requires each undergraduate student to complete the final undergraduate architectural design studio with a choice of international study abroad programs. These programs, organized and led by our faculty, are currently located in Paris-France, Seoul-South Korea, Seville-Spain, and Verona-Italy with about 80 students. Outreach Community engaged projects are vibrant opportunities to connect Colleges and University with the various stakeholders. In the past four years I acted as the COA organizer of the Art+Architecture initiative, in collaboration with the College of Visual & Performing Arts and the Lubbock Arts Alliance, which resulted in student work exhibitions and recruitment events at the Lubbock Civic Center. Projects such as Avenue J CITY GREEN SCAPE and Urban Stage were two important urban design moments involving students, faculty, the city, an array of community players and TTU units in the vision for the revitalization of downtown Lubbock where I contributed as Design Team Director. Two graduate design studios played a leading role in analyzing two city blocks. A full semester was dedicated to designing and fabricating installations which acted as catalysts for lively events. Students’ projects incorporated hands-on experiences on real constructions that improved obsolete urban conditions and addressed social, economic and sustainability issues impacting the community’s life. Valuing people Among human resources, the faculty is the pulsating force of any University. Recruitment and retention of outstanding faculty is a vehicle for excellence. I feel it is important to identify current and future areas of collaboration and interdisciplinary research, strategically hire exceptional faculty and collegially invest resources to facilitate productivity in a vibrant environment. I have strived throughout my career to support smart, talented people and collaborative efforts and initiatives in any way possible. At the CoA, I am directly involved with new hires for tenure-track faculty with research interests in our developing specializations, with new energy and expertise that can help with the graduate programs expansion and competitiveness. In the same way, it is crucial to find mechanisms for reinvigorating the extant faculty. I truly enjoy in using my experience and background to guide, mentor and support faculty, students and staff. The research skills of the faculty are propelling forces that impact student abilities to participate in scholarly activities and critical thinking explorations. As Associate Dean, I set goals for operational efficiency, faculty productivity and college reputation. My communication and motivational skills help me to create an efficient and organized working environment, where well performing and competent staff members are recognized and rewarded. I work very closely with the Director of Academic Programs and the Chief of Staff and we established a valuable synergy based on mutual respect and tangible results. My daily interactions with advisors, recruiter and administrative assistants are positive and supportive. I was proud of our graduate advisor when she recently obtained her Master degree. I felt that it was the right thing to do when I accommodated her schedule to facilitate the accomplishment of her studies. Her higher education achievement resulted as a significant return on investment for us, because I believe that well-trained, motivated and educated staff can make a huge difference and are instrumental in reaching University objectives. At Texas Tech, I am working closely with the Dean of the Graduate School with scholarship and fellowship allotments to recruit and retain the best graduate students. After presenting a clear recruitment plan with specified needs and goals, we are able to offer financial support to new incoming M.S. and Ph.D. students. In the past two years we have been assigned by the Provost $200,000 from an incentive fund and our 8 alumni generosity allows us to administer Graduate Endowment Balances for Scholarships in the amount of $850,000. Diversity I believe that all forms of diversity are great enrichments for any institution and I am focused on advocating the success of faculty and students from potentially marginalized groups. Embracing a broad array of perspectives and including multiple voices is key to creating a university with successful academic, research and service agendas. Our college is the most diverse at Texas Tech with faculty coming from 12 different countries and we celebrate a large Hispanic community within our student population. The majority of our Hispanic students are first generation college students. Females are still underrepresented among faculty and students, standing at a low 28%. Together with a group of faculty and staff, I supported an Award for The Best Female Student at the CoA, which is competitively assigned each year and linked to Fe_Arch event. This is one of our most popular initiatives at the CoA, which is a daylong celebration of women in Architecture hosting prestigious keynote speakers lecturing on their professional achievements. Leadership Working at Texas Tech University has given me the chance to engage with a vivacious, continuously growing, highly collaborative environment, which has facilitated the realization of my professional and personal goals. I hold insight, fearlessness and communication acumen combined with positivity as my major personal characteristics. My leadership would vigorously advocate the College of Design, Construction and Planning’s strengths and potentials, and I would apply my ability to carry out a clear vision in continuing a path of success for the University of Florida. I would consult faculty, staff, students and alumni to set an agenda of priorities and assess programs, activities and budget within the College to promote productivity, visibility and reputation. I find myself ready for the next step in academic leadership. I aspire to a higher administrative rank as a means of leading the reinvention of an entrepreneurial direction for the College of Design, Construction and Planning at the University of Florida. I believe that my experiences in administrative, academic and professional positions have prepared me well to spearhead increasingly responsible roles. I respectfully and humbly believe that I have the qualification, leadership skills, and commitment to serve as Dean of the College of Design, Construction and Planning at the University of Florida. Please accept my appreciation for consideration of my application. Sincerely, Maria R.

PERBELLINI RESEARCH INTERESTS Parametric surface structures, with the focus on emergent computational strategies that require engagement with technology and promote novel design abilities and sensitivities. Computational models promote complex interrelations between form, material, structure, space and their systems’ behavior and performance. The scripted and parametrically defined surface structures are constituted of material and aesthetic performativity (patterns are also considered). Equally important is the question of the relationship between form and space, between the envelope and the content. The definition and control of parametric relationships and values in order to have new and advanced geometric configurations. New multi-‐layered structural and formal complexities unfold from the parameters continuous evolution and differentiation. Design Process, research on developing design strategies for digital constructs. In particular, as the implementation of software technology in an experimental design process to study emergent and generative applications. The interest is on Surface Design, an accumulation of techniques to foster the translation of affect into architecture, a digital inscription of rhythmic and harmonic patterns in architectural design, which propagate the creation of architecture of experience with sensorial surfaces. Digital Design and Fabrication, research into materials and experimentation with a parametric fabrication of digital spatial organizations at the scale of details and with various construction techniques. Specific emphasis is put on the potentials triggered by 3D-‐datatransfer and new modes of mass-‐production, which explore digital customization and manufacturing of buildings and their components. The inquiry into the contemporary modalities of manufacturing processes and questions of material innovation afford to revise and implement new techniques of design and digital data translation into the fabrication process. Digital making; Digital Craft and Fabrication; studies of material systems, their performances, properties and intrinsic characteristics enter early in the design process and are linked to CAM (computer-‐aided manufacturing) and CNC (computationally numerically controlled)-‐milling techniques. Qualitative properties: texture, ornament, color, transparency/opacity, light/shadow. Intermedial Architecture, inquiry on the integration of actual and virtual realities in architecture; interactive environments; implementation of IT-‐infrastructures in architecture and urban design in order to experiment with the evolution of new organizational structures: -‐ Flexcity, New Urban Strategies for e-‐Densification, Research Project supported by Mike Hogg Urban Scholars Grant, The University of Texas at Austin, School of Architecture, Austin, USA, 2001; -‐ Project “The Leisure Palace”, Architectural Design and IT-‐Concept Development for Lehrter Bahnhof Berlin, Germany, 2001-‐2006; -‐ Xspace – e-‐Density Urbanism, Research Project, UT-‐Austin, School of Architecture, Austin, USA, 2002.
