    The Management and Organization Department in the Smeal College of Business at The Pennsylvania State University (University Park, PA) has two full-time, Assistant/Associate, Tenure-Track positions open with an emphasis in Entrepreneurship. Although one position seeks a candidate conducting high-quality refereed research specifically in the domains of entrepreneurship or innovation, the candidate for the second position could be from one of the major areas of management (strategic management, organizational theory, or organizational behavior), although an interest in entrepreneurship and innovation would be a plus.

    Both positions require candidates who can teach classes in entrepreneurship. The start date for the position is Fall 2019. Candidates must have a doctorate (or be in the final stages of a doctoral program), demonstrate an interest in and a track record for conducting high-quality scholarly research, as well as a high level of teaching competence, especially in the area of entrepreneurship or related areas such as innovation. Job Requirements: Candidates should provide evidence of strong research potential, preferably with an early career record of publication(s)/acceptance(s). We expect faculty members to pursue an active research program, perform undergraduate and graduate-level teaching, help to supervise graduate students, and engage in professional service. We have a strong preference for candidates with publications in premier journals, who have a research program with high-impact potential underway, and who are able to connect with a wide array of colleagues in our department. Review of applications will begin on approximately October 1, 2018, and will continue until the position is filled. Candidates should apply at this website: https://psu.jobs/job/80526. Please upload the following application materials electronically (pdf or MS-Word files): letter of interest, CV, and three research papers. Please have three recommendation letters sent to Tena Ishler, Administrative Support  Coordinator, in the M&O Department at tri3@psu.edu.
