The Culverhouse College of Business at The University of Alabama invites
applications for two tenure-track faculty positions at the Assistant or
Associate Professor level in Management Information Systems (MIS) in the
Department of Information Systems, Statistics, and Management Science
starting August 16, 2021. Candidates must have completed a doctorate in MIS
or a closely related field by the start of the appointment. Current
Assistant Professors are strongly encouraged to apply.

Candidates should demonstrate both an interest in conducting high-impact
research and evidence of excellence in undergraduate and/or graduate
teaching. Preferred candidates will seek to publish in journals featured on
the UT-Dallas List, the AIS Senior Scholars List, and/or technical outlets
such as *IEEE Software Engineering* or *Decision Support Systems*. We are
open to all IS research topics and methods, but prefer candidates whose
work complements ongoing faculty research activity, which
includes cybersecurity, healthcare, systems development and delivery,
software engineering, and data science. Candidates with teaching interests
in software engineering / programming, database management, data
communications, or systems analysis and design are preferred. Having
relevant professional experience is also a desirable trait for candidates.

Salary is competitive and commensurate with experience and achievements.
Prior to hiring, the candidate must successfully pass a pre-employment
background verification.  Applicants must apply online at
https://facultyjobs.ua.edu and include a one-page cover letter, curriculum
vitae, research statement, one representative example of a research paper,
evidence of effective teaching, and a list of at least three references
with contact information. Required documents not attached at the time of
application will disqualify the applicant.
