Faculty Position in Management Information Systems
Lacy School of Business
Butler University
Indianapolis, Indiana

The Andre B. Lacy School of Business of Butler University is seeking applicants for a tenure track assistant professor position in Management Information Systems beginning in August 2018.  We are especially interested in applicants with a strong and demonstrated focus in Systems Analysis and Design.  Being able to teach Health Care IT and Data Networks would be a plus. Applicants must either have a Ph.D or be far enough along so that they will finish their Ph.D by August 2018.

The ideal candidate will share our belief that individual faculty members can make a difference in the life of a student, that creativity and risk-taking are important facets of teaching and learning, and that research must be balanced with, and complementary to, excellent teaching. Candidates should have teaching experience and demonstrate that they are committed to becoming an excellent teacher at both the undergraduate and graduate level.  They should also value and have a strong interest in scholarship and provide evidence that they will be productive scholars who will publish research in quality peer-reviewed journals.

Butler University is a private, residential university located on a beautiful 300-acre campus about 10 minutes north of downtown Indianapolis, the twelfth largest city in the United States. It is a national university and a member of the Big East Conference.  Butler is committed to providing personalized liberal and professional education to 4,400 undergraduate and 500 graduate students in its six colleges (Business, Liberal Arts and Sciences, Communication, Pharmacy and Health Sciences, Education, and Arts).  The recently named Lacy School of Business enrolls about 1,000 full-time undergraduates.  It has a part-time MBA program as well as a Master of Professional Accounting (MPAcc) program and is accredited by AACBS-International.  Plans for a new building for the School of Business are well underway.

Butler is committed to developing a diverse pool of applicants and encourages the application and nomination of women and people of color. Compensation and support are competitive.
