Visiting Assistant/Associate Professor of Marketing, 2010-11

The Department of Economics and Management at Albion College seeks an exceptional teacher who can work well in a selective liberal arts college with a broad-based undergraduate curriculum. Visiting one-year appointment at assistant or associate level beginning August 2010. Continuation of the position beyond May 2011 depends on funding and enrollment.

Duties: Teaching load is three undergraduate courses per semester. Teaching responsibilities include a marketing principles course and two or three specialized courses in marketing such as marketing research, international marketing, consumer behavior, pricing strategy, new product development, marketing communication, retail marketing management, business-to-business marketing, services marketing, branding, and sales force management. We prefer a candidate who could teach one or two courses in a field other than marketing; introductory statistics would be our first choice, but it would also be helpful if a candidate could teach another management discipline or economics. Advising and mentoring students are also important responsibilities, as is involvement in the Gerstacker Institute for Professional Management, an honors program affiliated with the Economics and Management Department.
 

• Extensive knowledge of marketing, evidence of effective teaching, and a graduate or professional degree at the master’s level or higher are essential.
• A Ph.D. or ABD, an MBA, industry experience, and scholarly potential in marketing are desirable.

Application Process:

For an interview at the American Marketing Association meeting, please submit application as soon as possible.  Application should include: application letter, vita, copies of teaching evaluations, three letters of recommendation, and a graduate transcript; a research paper is optional.
