    Subject to funding approval, the Department of Organization and Management at San Jose State University has openings for tenure-track faculty in the following areas:
    Entrepreneurship and Intrapreneurship
    Human Resource Management
    Appointments will be made at a level commensurate with experience, although junior candidates are preferred. The start date can be August 2007 or January 2007.

    Applicants for the position in Entrepreneurship and Intrapreneurship must have a strong theoretical and/or applied background in one or both areas; interest and experience in global enterprise management is desirable.

    Applicants for the position in Human Resource Management should have a strong theoretical foundation in this area, as well as expertise in one or more of the following HRM areas: compensation and benefits programs; legal/regulatory issues; staffing, performance management and measurement; negotiations in union/non union settings; HRIS, international HRM, and HRM issues such as intellectual property and diversity management.

    Applicants should:
    * Demonstrate a commitment to teaching excellence.
    * Demonstrate an ability to work in a collegial atmosphere as part of a team.
    * Be aware of and sensitive to the educational needs of a multicultural population.
    * Possess excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
    * Emphasize pragmatic teaching applications, ideally enhanced by industry experience.

    ABD candidates will be considered, but completing the doctorate would be a condition of continuing employment and is a prerequisite to promotion and tenure. For appointment to senior rank, candidates must demonstrate a record of quality research leading to refereed publications, and be willing to assume a leadership role in the field.

    The Organization and Management Department serves approximately 1,500 undergraduates who have declared Management, International Business or Human Resource Management as a major. Additional information on the department can be found at:
