Position description

Two Full-time Adjunct Teaching Faculty Positions in Modern Information Systems Area

The School of Business, home of the A. Gary Anderson Graduate School of Management (AGSM) at the University of California, Riverside, invites applications for two full-time Adjunct Teaching Faculty Positions in Modern Information Systems Area (Data analytics; business intelligence; Python or modern language programming; blockchain or fintech; cybersecurity). An appointee in this series is assigned a heavier instructional load in recognition of the fact that research responsibility is limited; appointees with titles in this series also engage in University and public service consistent with their assignments.
Full-time Adjunct Professors in Information Systems are not members of the Academic Senate and focus primarily on teaching. The desired start date is July 1, 2020.

We seek faculty members with demonstrated excellence in teaching, an interest in program administration, and a continuing interest in pedagogical academic research. Candidates must have a Ph.D. in Information Systems or in a relevant discipline. New Ph.D. candidates must have completed all Ph.D. requirements prior to appointment. Candidates are expected to teach at both the graduate and undergraduate levels. Screening of candidates will commence immediately and will continue until the positions are filled. We are particularly interested in diverse candidates.
