Milano, a division of The New School for Management and Urban Policy, seeks a faculty member for Fall 2009 in the area of social entrepreneurship. Our interest is primarily at the assistant professor level, but others at more senior levels will be considered.
The Milano School (
http://www.newschool.edu/milano/Default.aspx), where the positions are housed, offers masters degree programs in nonprofit management, urban policy, and organization change management as well as a Ph.D. program. Our nonprofit management program was among the first created in the U.S.
The New School is a comprehensive university, consisting of eight divisions, including Milano The New School of Management and Urban Policy and the Parsons School of Design. The university context which bridges management and design provides unique opportunities for researching, creating, and studying socially focused ventures. Students in our masters programs have won or placed in the top three teams in the JP Morgan Chase Community Development competition in each of the past five years.
http://www.enterprisecommunity.org/local_work/gulf_coast/chase_competition.asp We are open to traditional academics (for tenure track) as well as those whose professional expertise might make a term appointment more appropriate.
Full-time faculty position in Financial Management, Budgeting, Accounting & Finance (Tenure-Track or renewable term)
The New School seeks an expert in the areas of financial management, budgeting, accounting, and finance, with particular attention to applications in the non-profit sector. Understanding connections to both the for-profit sector and the public sector will be important. A solid grounding in performance management, capital markets, social finance, corporate social responsibility, and/or socially responsible business would be a plus. The position will be housed at Milano the New School for Management and Urban Policy.
The successful candidate will play a role in the development of a core accounting, budget and finance course for the Milano MS degrees in Nonprofit Management, Organizational Change Management, and Urban Policy Analysis and Management; supporting curricular and practical development of social entrepreneurship (in Milano and throughout the university); development of a social finance area of specialization in Milano; and contribute to the design of an undergraduate management and/or business program. We are looking for someone to work collaboratively across disciplines and fields to build bridges to other Divisions in the University, including for example programs in design and management, international affairs, and business at Parsons the New School for Design and Lang the New School for Liberal Arts, among others.
Applicants should have a Ph.D. in a relevant field or another terminal graduate degree coupled with significant experience. Preference is for someone whose research, scholarship and/or creative practice would merit consideration for a tenure-track position. Consideration will also be given to those whose careers and significant accomplishments as practitioners would make a renewable term appointment more appropriate. This position is approved at the rank of "Assistant Professor"; senior candidates with outstanding records, accomplishments and reputations may also be considered. This position is dependent on final budget approval from the Office of the Provost.
