Stetson University's School of Business Administration, an entrepreneurially minded School with a balanced emphasis on teaching and research and dedicated to delivering an innovative and comprehensive business curriculum to our students, invites applications for two Visiting Assistant Professor of Business Systems, AI, and Analytics positions in the Department of Business Systems and Analytics. Each position is a full-time, 9-month position that begins in August 2026 and is based in DeLand, Florida. Depending on departmental need and administrative approval, the position may be extended beyond one year. Applicants interested in developing distinctive courses and programs that leverage interdisciplinary collaborations and experiential learning within the School and across the institution in the areas of business statistics, information systems, artificial intelligence, and analytics are preferred.

QUALIFICATIONS:

The University seeks a candidate who will contribute primarily to teaching undergraduate courses in one or more areas of business statistics, information systems, AI, and analytics. The successful candidate will effectively introduce students to foundational concepts and guide them in applying these principles to real-world settings across a range of industries. Instruction will emphasize applied and engaged learning through hands-on projects, emerging technologies, tools, and platforms.

An MBA or master's degree in a related discipline from an AACSB-accredited institution is required. A Ph.D. (or terminal degree) from an AACSB-accredited institution in a related field by August 2026, and relevant professional work experience in AI or analytics is preferred.

Candidates should demonstrate a willingness to be fully engaged participants in the continued development of this growing program, in and out of the classroom; have excellent interpersonal and communication skills; demonstrate collegiality; and be able to work with multiple constituencies of diverse backgrounds.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

The teaching responsibility includes four courses in both the fall and spring semesters, equivalent to eight courses per academic year. The successful candidate may have the opportunity to complete one of these courses as an approved student-centered immersive experience (equivalent to one course) for Hatter Ready, the University's experiential, contemporary, and integrative learning initiative. Teaching responsibilities may include undergraduate and graduate courses and will depend on the candidate's disciplinary expertise, and may include offerings to meet the University's General Education requirements. Interested faculty may also offer theme-based courses that meet the University's General Education requirements (e.g., First-Year or Junior Seminars) or international courses through Stetson's WORLD program and the Rinker Center for International Learning. Additional responsibilities may include undergraduate advising; assistance with student recruitment; service to the university, college, and/or department; professional engagement; and building partnerships with both Florida-based and national practitioners and potential employers. All candidates should demonstrate a passion for the highest quality of teaching and maintain appropriate academic qualifications consistent with AACSB and School of Business Administration standards.
