[Weiquan Wang]

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

Position

The Department of Information Systems at the College of Business of the City
University of Hong Kong invites applications for (1) one or more
tenure-track position(s) at the rank of Assistant Professor or Associate
Professor and (2) one or more visiting position(s), beginning in July 2016.
Candidates must have received a doctorate in Information Systems or a
related area by July 2016. 

For tenure-track positions, 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.

Visiting appointment(s) will take a relatively heavier teaching load as
compared to those at tenure-track positions. Satisfactory prior teaching
experience will be valuable.

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.
