    Ideal candidates should demonstrate a strong record (or promise thereof in the case of Assistant rank) in both research

    aspects of strategy, entrepreneurship or organizational behavior. Although not required, we are interested in candidates
    willing to teach import/export management. At the graduate level, the college offers a Master's in Management with a
    focus in Global Business, and at the undergraduate level, the college offers an International Business Minor. Global
    business is also part of the curriculum for UA's MBA and EMBA programs. UA also offers a PhD in Management.
