Assistant Professor, Clinical, Information Systems

The Department of Information Systems and Business Analytics in the Hankamer School of Business at Baylor University invites applications for a non-tenure-track position at the clinical assistant professor level. Preference will be given to candidates with a professional background in information systems, demonstrated potential for teaching in the area, and publishing high-quality research relevant to the field.

The Department of Information Systems and Business Analytics seeks to enhance the school's standing and reputation with ambitious researchers who have initiated and/or sustained a record of publications in high-quality journals. And since this is a clinical faculty position, we also highly value relevant work experience in the field of information systems. Candidates should be devoted to excellence in teaching. Salary is competitive and commensurate with experience and qualifications.

The primary need is teaching the freshman-level core class on Excel to undergraduate pre-business majors. The standard teaching load for fall/spring semesters will be between 3-4 courses, per semester, depending on research productivity.

The Hankamer School of Business (http://www.baylor.edu/business/) is AACSB accredited and home to the Department of Information Systems and Business Analytics (https://www.baylor.edu/business/isba/). The Information Systems and Business Analytics Department has 35 full-time faculty supporting three full-time MIS degrees (undergraduate MIS, MSIS, and PhD), both an online and on-campus MSBA, as well as business school service courses in quantitative business analysis (QBA), MIS, and business communications. Faculty positions in Baylor's Department of Information Systems and Business Analytics offer market-competitive salaries, generous research support, and better than average benefits.

Benefits include tuition remission for spouses and dependents at Baylor and a consortium of other highly regarded private universities. In August, 2015, the department moved into the new state-of-the-art Paul L. Foster Campus for Business and Innovation (http://www.baylor.edu/giving/fostercampus/).
