JOB TITLE:
Assistant Professor – Marketing
ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:
The department seeks candidates who can contribute in meaningful ways across all three pillars of academia (i.e., research, teaching, and service). The person who fills the open position must demonstrate a passion for innovative, experiential-oriented teaching and, thus, be able to contribute to the strong teaching reputation of the department’s faculty. They will help students find relevance and interest in course material, leading to student mastery. They should be comfortable with the integration of technological trends (e.g., digital marketing tools, social media, AI) to help students be prepared for today’s job market. This may include teaching specialized courses in digital marketing, marketing analytics, or other marketing and AI-related topics. The standard teaching load in the college for research-active faculty is 2/2. The department seeks to minimize course preps for assistant professors, as well as research-active faculty.
Further, this professor will be expected to conduct high-quality peer-reviewed research resulting in publication in leading journals, in addition to other high-quality scholarly work, and, thus, contribute to the growing research culture of the department. They will also show a propensity for practical translation of their research, helping university stakeholders see value in college research. The department will annually provide funding, and faculty may apply at the college or university level for summer funding and research grants to support research. Optimally, this professor will contribute to program innovations within the college, along with fulfilling other meaningful institutional and professional service responsibilities. Given a PhD program in marketing in our department, the ideal candidate would also be willing to engage with PhD students, at a minimum by attending paper talks and supporting faculty-student interaction in possible GA/TA roles. Further, the University of Wyoming is outreach-oriented, and the ideal candidate will have a capability to contribute in this area. However, the department seeks to shield assistant professors from heavy service demands (including to doctoral students and to the department/college/university.
Interested individuals should submit a cover letter emphasizing their qualifications for and interest in the position, their curriculum vitae, evidence of teaching effectiveness, and contact information for three references. Applications should be received by September 30, 2025 for full consideration.
