The beginning date for the position is September 1, 2025.

 

Candidates must possess a Ph.D in sport management, business analytics, or a related discipline and pursue a high-quality research program with the objective of publishing in top-tier journals in the field.

Candidates must also demonstrate potential for high-quality teaching at the undergraduate and graduate levels. Primary teaching responsibility will be in sport business analytics, at the undergraduate and/or graduate levels. Additional teaching responsibilities may be for courses in event management, sport marketing, international sport management, or other sport management topics. The initial teaching load will consist of three courses per year, and junior faculty are given minimal service requirements.

Salary, benefits, teaching load, and research support are highly competitive and commensurate with experience and qualifications. Candidates who currently hold tenure-track appointments at other institutions are strongly encouraged to apply. Ideal candidates have a record of publishing in top journals at rank and evidence of highly effective teaching in graduate and/or undergraduate courses.

 

Applicants should submit a letter of interest, a current curriculum vitae, contact information for (3) references, at least one recent paper (publication or manuscript), and recent teaching evaluations. Letters of recommendation will be requested at time of application submission. Additional information may be requested after initial review of applicants.
