The department is known for its excellence in research and teaching and has four research chairs or professorships.

The department has also been recognized for teaching effectiveness, with numerous collegiate and University teaching awards.

Further information about the undergraduate, MBA, and doctoral programs can be found at: http://tippie.uiowa.edu/management-organizations/.
The Henry B. Tippie College of Business is housed in the 179,000 sq. ft. John Pappajohn Business Building. This building has state-of-the-art facilities, including the Marvin A. Pomerantz Business Library, and the latest information technology in all the classrooms. U.S. News and World Report and The Financial Times consistently rank the full-time Tippie MBA program in the top 50 programs. The Iowa City area community includes Coralville, North Liberty, Solon, and other small towns with a total population of about 100,000. The University both provides and attracts a wide variety of cultural opportunities, Big Ten athletic events, and a number of business endeavors resulting from scientific and educational research that originated at the University of Iowa. In the summers, Iowa City sponsors weekly downtown jazz and pop concerts, and throughout the year major poets, writers, artists, historians, scientists, and others speak or perform in University venues or read at local bookstores. Excellent public schools, close, safe, and comfortable neighborhoods, and a highly educated population mean that Iowa City frequently appears high on "best-place-to-live" listings in national magazines. The nearby countryside, good state parks, and the Iowa River provide many opportunities for walking, biking, and boating. Twenty miles to the north is Cedar Rapids, Iowa's second-largest city, home to the Eastern Iowa Airport and a population of about 120,000.
The University of Iowa is an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer. Women and minorities are encouraged to apply.
