[AISWorld] Tenure Track MIS Position at University of Montana

[Firth, David (Dr)]

Tenure-Track position as Assistant or Associate Professor of Management Information Systems beginning in late August 2014.
Candidates must have a Ph.D. from an AACSB-accredited school.

Applicants must have flexibility to teach undergraduate and graduate classes in Information Systems.  In addition to the ability to teach traditional MIS courses, preference will be given to applicants with teaching interests in database, IT security, big data, or data analytics.  An interest in teaching a section of operations management is a plus, but MIS should be the candidate’s primary area.  A successful candidate will demonstrate a commitment to innovative applications of MIS and to the long-term success of business in Montana.

Demonstrated excellence in teaching and an active research agenda are required proportionate to the applicant’s years of service and rank.
