Kenneth W. Freeman College of Management

Visiting Assistant Teaching (non-tenure track) Professor in Markets, Innovation, and Design

The Markets, Innovation, and Design (MiDE) Department at Bucknell University's Freeman College of Management invites applications for a full-time, Visiting Assistant Professor (non-tenure track) faculty position to contribute to the College's mission of providing a rigorous, experiential education, in the context of a unique national university with a vibrant liberal arts core and strong complementary professional programs. This one-year appointment is slated to begin in August 2025.

The successful candidate will primarily be responsible for teaching our introductory Principles of Marketing course to students from both inside and outside of the Freeman College of Management. Preference will be given to candidates with a proven track record of successful teaching. The standard teaching load is six courses per academic year. For additional information pertaining to our curriculum and our faculty, please visit: https://www.bucknell.edu/academics/freeman-college-management/majors-departments/markets-innovation-design.

This position is open to candidates with an array of marketing backgrounds. Qualified candidates will have completed or be near completion of a Ph.D. or a DBA in marketing or a marketing-related related field. In addition, candidates will be expected to facilitate student experiential learning and maintain faculty qualifications consistent with the AACSB accreditation standards for academically- or professionally-qualified faculty such as engaging in research or consulting activities related to their professional background.

The approximately 700 undergraduate students in the AACSB-accredited Freeman College of Management may choose among five highly interdisciplinary majors that combine courses in the various fields of management, with offerings also in the arts, humanities, natural and social sciences, and engineering. Our innovative curriculum and world-class teacher-scholars earned Freeman College a top-20 ranking in the Poets & Quants' annual survey of undergraduate business programs in each of the past 3 years. We believe that an undergraduate education combining technical skills and deep intellectual exploration is the best preparation for thoughtful and capable leaders. Non-tenure track faculty members must be capable of contributing to this mission through teaching.

Bucknell University, an Equal Opportunity Employer, believes that students learn best in a diverse, inclusive community and is therefore committed to academic excellence through diversity in its faculty, staff, and students. As such, the successful candidate should have a demonstrated ability to work successfully with a diverse student body and a track record of inclusive, innovative pedagogy. We seek candidates who are committed to Bucknell’s efforts to create and maintain a climate that fosters the growth and development of a diverse student body, to raising perspectives that may not otherwise be vocalized in the classroom, and who are eager to advise and mentor students from multicultural and underrepresented student groups. We welcome candidates who demonstrate excellence in reflective multicultural and inclusive teaching practices and who display a strong commitment to collaboration and interdisciplinarity.

Qualifications

Candidates must possess a Ph.D. or DBA (or be near completion) in a field appropriate for teaching marketing courses. Candidates must have either compiled a record of teaching excellence or demonstrate potential for teaching excellence.

APPLICATION

Review of applications will begin immediately and will continue until the position is filled. For additional information and to submit a formal application, please visit Bucknell's career site at careers.bucknell.edu Applications will only be accepted online. We intend to invite successful finalists for on-campus interviews.

Application documents must be combined into a single PDF labeled with the applicant's last, first name. Complete files must include:

• A letter of application.
• A curriculum vitae, including three references (letters of recommendation will be requested at the time of the final on-campus interview).
• A statement of teaching and advising philosophy.
• Detailed student course evaluations indicating exceptional teaching performance, or promise of teaching excellence.
