As an academic, creative designer and academic leader, Milton S. F. Curry works across disciplines to find intellectual space for issues of cultural theory to intersect with contemporary architectural production and discourse in urbanism. As an academic leader, he has collaborated with faculty and students to produce innovative curricula, exhibitions, and funded initiatives on industrial design, the city, and public health. Curry has worked collaboratively with university presidents, provosts, deans and department chairs to create cross-disciplinary programs and impactful faculty exchanges. The Michigan/Mellon Project on Egalitarianism and the Metropolis and Michigan Architecture Prep Program (an architecture enrichment program in Detroit for over 60 high school juniors per year)—two projects that he directs—are engaging constituencies within Taubman College and the University of Michigan, as well as designers and scholars from Mexico City and Rio de Janeiro; high school students, schoolteachers and administrators, and the professional architecture community in Detroit.

Curry was appointed associate dean and associate professor at the University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning in 2010.
