The Department of Business at Rollins College is seeking applicants for a tenure-track position in the area of Social Entrepreneurship at the rank of Assistant Professor beginning in August 2017. The position includes teaching undergraduate Social Entrepreneurship courses in the Department of Business.  The ability to teach other courses in areas such as Management, International Business, Finance, and/or other related business disciplines is highly desirable.  Teaching general education courses is also required. Other responsibilities of the positions include advising, program and curriculum development, assurance of learning (AOL), service activities, and research.  The ability and willingness to develop and sustain an active research agenda and output is expected.  The willingness to teach blended and evening courses is also expected. The minimum requirement is a doctorate in Social Entrepreneurship or a closely affiliated discipline, preferably from an AACSB accredited institution – ABDs will be considered.  Some college-level undergraduate teaching and practical experience is highly desirable.  Rollins expects inclusion of high impact teaching practices. Social Entrepreneurship courses are interdisciplinary and involve such practices as: out-of-the-classroom experiential learning, community engagement projects, human centered design-thinking, public poster sessions, and pitch competitions. Ability and willingness to embed these course components is expected. The successful candidate must be able to contribute to a diverse and inclusive learning and working environment at Rollins. We view differences (e.g. nationality, race, gender, age, sexual orientation, socioeconomic class, physical ability, learning styles, perspectives, etc.) as rich opportunities for understanding, learning, and growth.
