Department Summary The Department of Information Technology and Decision Sciences (ITDS) is comprised of two academic disciplines, Information Systems and Management Science.

Our department offers degrees at the bachelors, masters, and PhD levels. Five of our degrees are STEM-designated - A BS and MS in Information Systems and a BBA. MBA, and MS in Business Analytics. ITDS has a long track record of producing well-prepared, motivated, and, ultimately, successful business professionals and academicians.

Job Summary/Basic Function: The Information Technology & Decision Sciences (ITDS) Department in the G. Brint Ryan College of Business at the University of North Texas, a Carnegie R1 university, seeks an individual for a clinical faculty position in Decision Sciences / Management Science / Business Analytics (DS/MS/BA) with the ability and experience to teach and develop undergraduate and graduate DS/MS/BA courses, make quality intellectual contributions in those or closely related fields independently and with faculty colleagues and doctoral students, advise and mentor students, and render service to the department, college, university, and profession commensurate with their rank.

Minimum Qualifications: The successful candidate must have a PhD in Business Analytics / Decision Sciences / Management Science (BA/DS/MS) or a closely related field. Candidates must have three or more years of college-level teaching experience in BA/DS/MS or a closely related field and three or more years of management and/or consulting experience in a closely-related field. A track record developing, expanding, and improving relations with organizations that intern and/or hire college graduates is also important.

Preferred Qualifications: Strong preference for a proven teacher with experience teaching undergraduate and graduate business analytics courses and discipline-specific managerial experience. Also one with experience developing courses, curriculum, and/or teaching cases, and who is also able and willing to assist students with career guidance and helping us nurture, expand, and improve our relations with industry. A proven record of research or other discipline-specific intellectual contributions is desired, since productivity in this area is part of annual evaluations; therefore, preference is for a candidate proven to be capable of and interested in conducting discipline-related research independently or with colleagues. Great teaching is key.

ITDS enrollments are up over 33% in the past year and over 63% in the past three.
