SoA is highly interested in candidates with expertise in contemporary technologies and approaches in integrating interdisciplinary collaboration to advance innovative creative work and teaching. The school is particularly interested in candidates with expertise to lead our DesignBuildUTAH@SLC program. This is a full-time, nine-month appointment (1.0 FTE) beginning July 1, 2027.
The School of Architecture (SoA) has a long history of excellence in education, research, and societal impact, with our original architecture degree program dating back over 75 years. As home to the only professionally accredited Master of Architecture (M.Arch) degree in the state, the school is known for leading transformative changes, most recently through an integrated curriculum, award-winning design-build programs, and sustained enrollment growth. During the 2025 NAAB Accreditation Site Visit for the M.Arch program, the school excelled, meeting all criteria and achieving 100% compliance. The school aims to be a national leader in architectural education, research, and practice, strongly aligned with the University of Utah’s goals. The School of Architecture is committed to teaching creative critical thinking, community engagement, design excellence, design research, innovative building and structural systems, pedagogies and practices in architecture, ecological resilience, global citizenship, leadership/collaboration, risk-taking/exploration, among others. The school aims to expand on these areas to emerging technologies.
The school expects the successful candidate to contribute to these initiatives. The SoA offers a professionally accredited Master of Architecture (M.Arch) program, as well as a Bachelor of Science in Architectural Studies (BSAS), a Bachelor of Arts in Architectural Studies (BAAS), and a Master of Science in Architectural Studies (MSAS). The SoA is expanding its student enrollment, faculty portfolio, and resources, with a strong vision to sustain the growth. The SoA began offering a new Bachelor of Arts in Architectural Studies (BAAS) in Fall 2025. In the near future, the SoA intends to add a new Ph.D. program in Architecture to its portfolio. In the last several years, a new integrated curriculum has been developed with a sequence of immersive design studios with integrated courses (technology, research, theory, design communication, etc.), building up from bachelor’s to master’s to a capstone experience of a student-driven individual design project prepared and supported by architectural research.
Our work in the School of Architecture is interdisciplinary and integrated. We are known as champions of place-based engagement (including our signature DesignBuildUTAH program), social justice, and environmental stewardship. We convene critical conversations, host national conferences, foster community dialogues, publish the critical journal Dialectic, and serve as a test bed for ideas on the university campus. We are risk-takers and innovators, driven by our ethic of care, which underlies all that we do in our teaching, scholarship, and service. For more information, please visit http://soa.cap.utah.edu.

Search School Nurse Jobs in UtahSchool Nurse Jobs in Utah: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies and school districts sponsor visas for school nurses in Utah?
The largest employers of school nurses in Utah include Granite School District, Canyons School District, Davis School District, and Jordan School District. Some larger charter school networks and intermountain healthcare-affiliated school programs also participate in sponsorship. Sponsorship is not universal across districts, so confirming directly with the human resources department of each district is important before applying.
Which visa types are most common for school nurse roles in Utah?
The H-1B visa is the most commonly used pathway for internationally trained school nurses, provided the role requires at least a bachelor's degree in nursing or a related field. The EB-3 immigrant visa is another pathway that some school districts use for permanent sponsorship. Nurses from certain countries may also explore EB-2 NIW options if they can demonstrate national interest, though this is less common for school-based roles.
How to find school nurse visa sponsorship jobs in Utah?
Migrate Mate is a dedicated platform for international job seekers and filters school nurse roles in Utah by visa sponsorship availability, saving significant research time. On Migrate Mate, you can browse current openings specifically at Utah school districts and charter networks known to work with internationally licensed nurses. Setting up job alerts for Salt Lake County and Utah County will capture postings as they go live across the state's major hiring regions.
Which cities in Utah have the most school nurse sponsorship opportunities?
Salt Lake City and its surrounding suburbs, including West Valley City and Murray, account for the highest concentration of school nurse openings due to the density of Granite and Salt Lake school districts. Provo and Orem in Utah County see consistent demand tied to the area's fast-growing student population. Ogden and Layton in northern Utah are secondary markets where Davis and Weber school districts periodically recruit licensed nurses.
Are there state-specific licensing or qualification requirements school nurses should know before pursuing Utah sponsorship?
Utah requires school nurses to hold an active Registered Nurse license issued or endorsed by the Utah Division of Occupational and Professional Licensing. International nurses must typically complete CGFNS credential evaluation and pass the NCLEX-RN before a Utah RN license is issued. Some larger school districts also prefer or require a bachelor's degree in nursing, which aligns well with H-1B visa specialty occupation requirements and strengthens a sponsorship petition.
What is the prevailing wage for sponsored school nurse jobs in Utah?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
