Vacancy: Tenure-track Position for Assistant Professor or Associate
Professor at City University of Hong Kong

The Department of Information Systems at the College of Business of the City
University of Hong Kong invites applications for one or more tenure-track
position(s) at the rank of Assistant Professor or Associate Professor
beginning in July 2015. Candidates must have received a doctorate in
Information Systems or a related area by July 2015. Candidates must also
have a strong commitment to high-quality research and excellent teaching.
For appointments at the Associate Professor level, a substantial track
record of research publications in top-tier journals is essential. For
appointments at the Assistant Professor level, strong indication of the
ability to publish in top tier journals is critical.

Successful candidates should have the ability to teach at both graduate
(MBA/MSc) and undergraduate (BBA) levels, and be able to effectively teach
large freshman classes in the Introduction to Information Management with a
strong emphasis on IT applications.  Hence the demonstrated capacity to
motivate students to appreciate the value of innovative information
management on businesses in the Internet era and to excite them about
developing a career in business information services will be highly
valuable.  Ability to teach other courses in Information Systems and/or
having experience in administrative work is a plus.
