Position and Qualifications: The Department of Management in the Mays Business School at Texas A&M University is seeking to add three new colleagues to its group beginning in the fall of 2016.

Two of the positions are at the open rank with a preference for candidates at the assistant and associate levels. One of these positions will be filled by a person with an Organizational Behavior/Human Resource Management focus while the second will be filled by a person with interest in Strategy and a secondary interest in International Management and/or Entrepreneurship.  

The third position is to be filled by a senior Strategy scholar who is qualified for an appointment to an endowed chair. International Management and/or Entrepreneurship could be a secondary interest(s).

Applicants for these positions should possess an earned doctorate in management or a related discipline and a strong record of scholarly contributions in the desired specializations.

We are also interested in individuals who are committed to excellence in teaching and to the importance of collegiality.
