    The Robinson College of Business seeks applications and nominations for a non-tenure track faculty position in the area of entrepreneurship. This position is an exceptional opportunity in entrepreneurship due to a combination of unique and attractive resources that include the following. The successful candidate will, along with the Executive Director, provide leadership in the internationally-renowned H. J.

This position includes teaching at the graduate and/or undergraduate levels in the College’s academic programs. Candidates must have a master’s or doctoral degree in a relevant field and must have demonstrated strong capability in teaching. Those appointed at the Clinical level must have a doctoral degree and significant practical experience.
