    The Department of Management at the Robins School of Business, University
    of Richmond, invites applications for a full-time, tenure track position
    in entrepreneurship with a secondary emphasis in strategic management to
    begin Fall 2009.

    The candidate selected will teach entrepreneurship and strategic
    management courses in the undergraduate and MBA program. Tenure-track
    faculty typically teach five courses per year with an average class size
    of twenty or fewer.

    The candidate will also be expected to conduct meaningful research aimed
    at publication in top-tier scholarly journals. Tenure-track faculty are
    eligible to apply for a one-semester research sabbatical during their
    third year.

    Candidates are expected to have completed or be near completion of the
    Ph.D. The preferred candidate will be at the Assistant or possibly
    Associate level, depending on qualifications, and will have some prior
    business experience. Evidence of teaching excellence is very important.

    The Robins School of Business is part of a private, highly selective
    university, with a liberal arts orientation and a rising national and
    international profile. U.S. News & World Report, as well as other college
    guides, consistently rank University of Richmond as one of the nation’s
    top universities. A recent Business Week ranking of undergraduate business
    programs put the Robins School in the top 25 nationally (#5 in academic
    quality). Our university is noted for its challenging academic programs,
    excellent facilities, commitment to undergraduate education, and strong
    resource base, including an endowment of well over $1 billion. The campus
    is one of the most beautiful in the country and the Richmond area offers
    all the amenities of a larger city, as well as easy access to the
    mountains, the beach, and Washington, D.C.

    Application submissions for this position should include a current
    curriculum vitae and the names and contact information of three references
    that are familiar with the candidate’s qualifications with respect to
    excellence in teaching and research. Inclusion of recent teaching
    evaluations, either in a separate document or in the vitae, will
    facilitate the selection process. The screening of applications will begin
    immediately and continue until an appointment is made.

    The University of Richmond appreciates ethnic and cultural diversity among
    its faculty and students. Applications from women, ethnic minorities,
    veterans, and individuals with disabilities are welcome.
