[AISWorld] University of Montana assistant or associate tenure track position in MIS starting Fall 2023

[Firth, David (Dr)]

If you are looking for balance in your life as you excel in the classroom and with your research, the University of Montana College of Business offers just that.

Outside Magazine has voted Missoula one of the best places to live in America (https://destinationmissoula.org/blog/outside-magazine-names-missoula-one-greatest-places-to-live  ).

We are located between Glacier National Park and Yellowstone National Park at the confluence of several rivers (indeed, the movie A River Runs Through It was written about and filmed near Missoula).  If you’ve watched the hit TV series Yellowstone, much of that was filmed just 40 miles south of Missoula.

We have a ski resort within 30 minutes of town (http://www.montanasnowbowl.com/ ) as well as hundreds of miles of biking trails within minutes if not seconds of town (http://www.missoulian.com/app/hikebike/index.html ).

Are you a runner?  The Missoula Marathon has been voted the world's best marathon by Runner's World magazine, and a Top 5 Best Racing Cities in the U.S. (https://www.missoulamarathon.org/about/recognition/)

If you love the river, you can kayak right in town at Brennan's Wave (https://destinationmissoula.org/brennans-wave ), or fish the world-famous Rock Creek just east of town (http://www.makeitmissoula.com/things-to-do/recreation/fishing/fishing-rock-creek-montana/ ).

Add to this the fact that Missoula has been voted by Outside Magazine a top five place in the nation to raise outdoor children (http://missoulian.com/news/local/outside-magazine-missoula-one-of-nation-s-top-places-to/article_4912e97c-e272-11e2-9803-001a4bcf887a.html ).  Involve your kids in the Missoula Children’s Theatre, known for bringing the opportunity to participate in live theater to children in large metropolitan centers and rural communities throughout the US, Canada and Mexico https://mctinc.org/childrens-theatre-in-missoula-2/2021-2022-childrens-programming/ .

And to top it off, Missoula has the world’s best public library!  https://destinationmissoula.org/blog/missoula-public-library-named-worlds-best-in-2022

We've got "quality of life" covered with our location, and our focus on teaching and helping students get great careers in Management Information Systems.  We are the largest major in the College of Business, with a 94% placement rate for our MIS majors, and by far the highest starting salary for undergraduates at the entire University of Montana at $72k for our MIS majors.  We deliver this to our MIS majors by working closely with leading regional and national employers like KPMG, PwC, Deloitte, FAST Enterprises and Cognizant.

The MIS department at the University of Montana is recognized around the world for its approach to undergraduate education and innovation in the classroom (see, for example, these articles http://aisel.aisnet.org/cais/vol23/iss1/2/, https://aisel.aisnet.org/cais/vol34/iss1/5/ , https://www.inderscienceonline.com/doi/abs/10.1504/IJIOME.2021.114719 ), as well as a focus on helping our MIS majors get great careers (CAIS https://aisel.aisnet.org/cais/vol39/iss1/1/) .

You can read a little more about us here, as well as see what one of our students thinks about our program: https://www.umt.edu/management-information-systems/default.php .

Our MIS faculty represents diversity and equity, and you can read more about us here: https://www.umt.edu/management-information-systems/mis-faculty-staff.php
