The Department of Management and Global Business at Rutgers Business School-Newark and New Brunswick invites applications for a tenure track position in Entrepreneurship starting in September 2018. Strong candidates will demonstrate outstanding research potential and have an active research program, excellent teaching capabilities, and the desire to help entrepreneurship make our communities and the world a better place.  Applicants at the rank of Assistant Professor should have a doctoral degree granted or nearly completed (i.e., ABD).  Applicants at the level of Associate or Full Professor should have research and teaching records appropriate to the rank.

Rutgers Business School–Newark and New Brunswick is the leading public MBA program in the New York-New Jersey-Connecticut metropolitan region and has the largest doctoral program of any public university in the nation.  Rutgers University-Newark is consistently ranked the most diverse research university in the United States and we benefit from the combination of local grounding and global perspective this brings.
