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.  Candidates must have the ability to develop and deliver curriculum; meet the demands of the position in a timely manner; and assess student learning outcomes. In addition, candidates should have strong oral and written communication and strong interpersonal skills. 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.


The undergraduate business programs at Rollins College are accredited by AACSB International. The Department of Business offers undergraduate majors in Business Management, International Business and Social Entrepreneurship. The Business Management major is offered to both Day and Evening Students.


The normal teaching load will be the equivalent of six courses a year, typically three courses per semester.  Rollins College is committed to liberal education and expects all faculty to contribute to the general education programs of the college. Summer teaching is available through the evening program.
