    Lecturer Position - Information Technology Management (ITM), Scheller College of Business, Georgia Tech (Re-posting)

     

    The Scheller College of Business at The Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, Georgia (Georgia Tech) invites applications for one full-time non-tenure-track (NTT) faculty position in the ITM Area at the Lecturer level starting Fall 2023. Applications will be reviewed until the position is filled. The NTT faculty career track is distinct from that of tenure track faculty and this position should not be seen as a path to a tenure-track position.

     

    The chosen candidate will teach courses in business analytics or related topics in the undergraduate, MBA, and MS in Analytics programs offered by the College in both online and in-person formats. The teaching requirements will be 6 courses per academic year. The chosen candidate is also expected to provide service to the College, the Institute, and the ITM profession. We are particularly interested in candidates who have relevant teaching experience in business analytics, machine learning, marketing analytics, process analytics, business statistics, or related topics. Experience in teaching in online programs with large enrollments is desirable. The minimum educational requirement for the position is a Master's degree in business analytics or a related discipline, and a Ph.D. degree is strongly preferred. Ph.D. candidates who expect to complete the degree prior to joining the College will also be considered. Compensation and benefits will be competitive and based on the candidate's qualifications and experience.

     

    Business Analytics is an interdisciplinary activity at the Scheller College of Business with faculty across multiple areas conducting research and teaching courses.  The College also has a Business Analytics Center that brings together organizations, analytics thought leaders, talented students and the world-class faculty at Georgia Tech. For more information about the center and its activities, please visit https://www.scheller.gatech.edu/centers-and-initiatives/business-analytics-center/index.html

They have diverse backgrounds and pursue a variety of research interests including business analytics, business value of information technology, crowdfunding and fintech, and other areas of pursuit. They publish in the premier outlets and their research has received numerous scholarly awards. Both our undergraduate and MBA programs have ranked top five in both the management information systems and business analytics specialties for 2022 and 2023 respectively in US News and World Report rankings.
