The Management Area of the McIntire School of Commerce at the University of Virginia is seeking applications for a full-time tenure track position in organizational behavior, beginning in August 2013.
The position is open at the Assistant or Associate Professor level. For appointment at the Assistant Professor level, applicants must have a Ph.D. in hand or be extremely close to completion, possess practical business experience, and demonstrate clear potential for a strong record in research and teaching. Particular consideration will be given to scholars whose research has potential synergies with current McIntire faculty.
Currently, the McIntire School of Commerce (http://www.commerce.virginia.edu) awards a Bachelor of Science in Commerce, a Master of Science in Accounting, Master of Science in Commerce (Finance and Marketing/Management) and a Master of Science in the Management of Information Technology. McIntire is recognized for excellence and innovation in undergraduate and graduate business education and scholarship. In its 2011 annual ranking of undergraduate business programs, Business Week magazine again ranked the McIntire School of Commerce second in the nation. Consistent with its Jeffersonian heritage, McIntire enjoys a culture of friendly and open exchange among faculty and between faculty and students.
McIntire serves over 650 undergraduates and 250 graduate students. Undergraduate students enter the Commerce School in their third year at the University and concentrate in one or more of six fields: accounting, finance, information technology, international business, management, and/or marketing. A recent New York Times article identified McIntire's Integrated Core Experience for third year students as the envy of other business schools. The major professional services firms (e.g., advertising, accounting, consulting, and investment banks) and many of the Fortune 500 corporations actively recruit McIntire graduates. In 2008, McIntire moved into a new, 156,000 square foot academic complex on the Lawn in the heart of UVA's historic Central Grounds, designed by Thomas Jefferson. Charlottesville is located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains and is rated highly as a desirable location to live.
McIntire faculty members have received numerous regional and national awards for their research. They also serve as members of editorial review boards and as editors of leading journals in their fields. Management Area scholars include: Tom Bateman, Carl Zeithaml, Brad Brown, Rob Cross, Adelaide W. King, Gary Ballinger, Drew Hess, Jeremy Marcel, Amanda Cowen, Ira Harris, Jennifer Knippen, and David Lehman. Recent publications from this faculty have appeared in Academy of Management Journal, Academy of Management Review, Organization Science, Strategic Management Journal, Management Science, Journal of Applied Psychology, Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes, Harvard Business Review, and Sloan Management Review. Examples of leading scholars outside the Management Area at McIntire include Bill Wilhelm and David C. Smith, Finance; David Mick and Rick Netemeyer, Marketing, and Michael Morris and Barbara Wixom, IT.
