Subject: OM Faculty Position at University of Miami
The Department of Management at the University of Miami’s School of Business Administration invites applications for an open-rank faculty position in the area of Operations and Supply Chain Management starting in August 2016. We seek candidates with a proven record of high quality research and excellence in the classroom. Candidates must also be strongly committed to developing programs and curricula, and in teaching in all of the school’s programs including those at the undergraduate, graduate, executive, and doctoral levels.
The Operations and Supply Chain Management group is an active research team committed to producing impactful and managerially relevant research that is publishable in the area’s top journals. The group works closely with other areas in the business school including marketing, business analytics, strategy, international business, and healthcare administration, and other schools in the University such as the School of Engineering and the Miller School of Medicine.
The School of Business Administration offers a vibrant and collegial research environment that is supported by centers (e.g., Center for International Business Education and Research) and laboratory facilities (e.g., Canes Behavioral Laboratory). In addition, the School’s academic departments regularly host international conferences and seminars in fields ranging from supply chain and finance to real estate and healthcare administration.
Founded in 1925, the University of Miami (UM) fondly known as “the U” was South Florida’s first university. Today UM is a national research university, comprised of five campuses that house 11 schools and colleges. In its two recent fundraising campaigns spanning less than a decade and a half, the University has raised a total of more than $3 billion dollars. With approximately $350 million in annual research and sponsored expenditures, UM’s faculty are actively engaged in research, scholarship and creative activities that span the sciences, engineering, humanities and arts, politics, and business. For the fifth year in a row the U has ranked in the top 50 in U.S. News & World Report’s annual “America’s Best Colleges” issue, and remains the No. 1 school in Florida.
We will begin review of applications immediately. Interested candidates should send their application packages (including CV, statement of research, and summary of teaching including evaluations) to MGTrecruiting@bus.miami.edu.
