Our students gain valuable, real-world experience through a wide variety of internships and other opportunities in the business community.
High-quality peer-reviewed research publications are emphasized and necessary for promotion and tenure. The management and HR areas within the department encompass a diverse range of research interests, including leadership, bullying/aggression, political skills, work-family dynamics, strategic management, and family business. Within the MISQ department, the applicant will find research interests that can complement management/HR, including cybersecurity, AI, data analytics, big data, healthcare, entrepreneurship, and operations management. Cross-disciplinary collaborations and other activities across the school and university are encouraged.
Primary teaching responsibilities include undergraduate and graduate courses in management and human resources. Specific teaching assignments may include online and/or face-to-face courses, requiring proficiency with the Canvas Learning Management System.
