Faculty Position in Business Ethics and Social Issues in Management

Buffalo, New York

The Richard J. Wehle School of Business at Canisius College invites applications for one assistant- or associate-level tenure-track position in the area of Social Issues in Management starting in the fall term of 2014.  Applicants should hold a PhD or equivalent degree or be ABD with a very good chance of earning their PhD by fall 2014.  The primary teaching responsibilities for the position will be required courses in business ethics at the undergraduate and MBA levels.

As an AACSB-accredited institution, Canisius seeks individuals who are capable of excellence in teaching and are committed to an ongoing program of scholarly research leading to national and international recognition.  Although Canisius is a teaching-oriented institution, quality scholarship meeting or exceeding AACSB standards for schools with MBA programs is required for tenure. The Wehle School of Business offers BS degrees in several business disciplines. It also offers a long-standing part-time MBA program as well as an accelerated one-year full-time MBA program.

Canisius College is located in the Buffalo/Niagara Region of New York State where the cost of housing, excellent school districts, numerous cultural organizations and a wide range of sports, entertainment and dining venues are just a few of the many things that make for an excellent quality of life.  Our four-season climate allows for myriad outdoor recreational activities that range from the beach in the summer to the ski slopes in the winter.  Furthermore, we are only 90 minutes away from Toronto, Canada, an additional source of both recreational and cultural activities.  The faculty at the Wehle School of Business enjoys the support of the local business community, and the College encourages interaction between faculty and local business organizations.  Canisius is the home of a Women's Business Center and the Center for Professional Development, which provide opportunities for faculty to become engaged in teaching, consulting and service opportunities in the business and civic life of the region.

Canisius College, a Catholic and Jesuit university, has as its foundation the fundamental values of academic excellence, leadership, faith and social justice.  Canisius is committed to educating and preparing men and women to become leaders in their professions and their communities, and in service to humanity.  The college is an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer committed to recruiting, supporting, and fostering a diverse community of outstanding faculty, staff and students. 

A member of the search committee will be attending the annual meeting of the Academy of Management in Buena Vista, FL from August 9-12 to interview applicants.  Those hoping to interview at the conference should try to submit their application letter and related materials by July 15, if possible.  Applications will be accepted until the position is filled.
