    Loyola University Chicago’s Quinlan School of Business invites applications for a position in the Information Systems and Supply Chain Management (ISSCM) Department.  The ideal candidate will continue to enhance the department’s growing tradition for top quality research and teaching in supply chain management as well as have an expertise in teaching courses in project management.  This tenure-track appointment, starting Fall 2017, may be made at the Assistant or Associate Professor level depending on qualifications. 

    Qualifications include a Ph.D. or DBA in Operations Management or a related field such as Supply Chain Management, Logistics, or Industrial Engineering.  Candidates with real-world supply chain and project management experience are strongly encouraged to apply, as are those whose research and teaching could contribute to Loyola’s focus on environmental sustainability.  Candidates should have a demonstrated commitment to quality teaching (graduate and undergraduate), research, and service. Candidates completing a Ph.D. by Fall 2017 are preferred but ABDs will be considered.

    The ISSCM Department is an interdisciplinary department, housing Supply Chain Management, Operations Management and Information Systems, and offering a Master of Science in Supply Chain Management degree.  The Supply and Value Chain Center, opened in 2013, currently has over 70 member companies, offering numerous opportunities for industry engagement and applied research.  We seek applicants who can enthusiastically participate in all supply chain related activities associated with the degree and center.
