The Jake Jabs College of Business & Entrepreneurship invites applications for a tenure-track position to join the college’s Management Option. Candidates would be expected to be able to teach courses in business analytics. Candidates with terminal degrees, experience, interests, and scholarship in Management Information Systems, Operations, Logistics, HR analytics, accounting analytics, marketing analytics, or similar fields are encouraged to apply. A normal teaching load is 15 hours per academic year. We seek candidates who are excellent in imparting state-of-the-art analytics knowledge to a socioeconomically, geographically, and increasingly ethnically diverse student body. In addition, candidates are expected to publish in top and impactful journals related to their field and engage in service. The management program offers an undergraduate concentration as part of the BS in Business program, and meaningfully contributes to the new graduate MS in Innovation and Management program. Therefore, a successful candidate must be able to teach with high quality across a variety of business analytics courses and topics at the Bachelor and Master levels, carrying a load of five sections per academic year. This intended hire is part of a deliberate effort to further integrate analytics education into the undergraduate and graduate curriculums.
