Job Description
The College of Business Administration (COBA) at Texas A&M University-Central Texas welcomes highly qualified applicants to fill an immediate need for an Assistant Professor of Supply Chain Management starting in Fall 2027. This is a tenure-track faculty position. Application reviews will begin immediately. We are looking for a collegial teacher-scholar with a passion for teaching and a multi-faceted track record of excellence both within and beyond the classroom. Our greatest and immediate teaching need is for undergraduate courses in support of our brand-new BBA in Logistics & Supply Chain Management program. Our hope is that this faculty member will help establish this as a strong program with great student outcomes and robust regional industry connections. Courses at other levels and in other related areas may also be available on a limited basis depending on applicant qualifications and interest.
About Texas A&M University - Central Texas
Established as an independent member of the Texas A&M University System in 2009, A&M-Central Texas is a friendly and dynamic regional teaching institution that prides itself on excellence in instruction but also embraces a growing emphasis on research. A&M-Central Texas is truly unique in that it is an upper- and masters-level institution, offering only junior- and senior-level coursework needed to successfully complete baccalaureate degrees and all coursework leading to the completion of master's degrees. As such, A&M-Central Texas maintains active partnerships with the major community colleges within the Greater Austin and Central Texas regions, as well as with Fort Hood, a premier outpost of the U.S. Army and one of the largest military installations in the world. Our multifaceted student demographic includes a significant proportion of first-generation college students, non-traditional learners, and military-affiliated personnel.
The College of Business Administration is accredited by AACSB, and we are eager to have energetic and collegial new faculty members partner with us in pursuit of our major strategic initiatives, of which there are many on the near horizon (most notably, a DBA program anticipated to launch Fall 2027 pending SACSCOC final approval). This is an exciting time of rapid change within the University and College that affords new faculty members many opportunities to make an immediate, significant, and lasting impact.
A&M-Central Texas is located on the southern edge of Killeen, TX, a city of approximately 150,000 located about halfway between Austin and Waco-about 60 miles either way. Our faculty members enjoy a wide variety of living options by virtue of the range of communities in the area-from quiet and rural to bustling and cosmopolitan. It is an easy drive to great art, food, shopping, and night life as well as to hunting, fishing, hiking, and camping for those who prefer the outdoors. Central Texas is a rapidly growing region with a booming economy, but is also a great place for families, with many options for schooling, worship, civic engagement, and recreation. It also has modest traffic and a reasonable cost of living. The major metropolitan areas of Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, and San Antonio are all within a 3-hour radius of Killeen.
Responsibilities
The candidate will be expected to provide quality, engaging instruction for typically three courses per term, primarily at the undergraduate level and in a variety of course delivery formats (face-to-face, online, or hybrid), with fully online being the most in-demand option at present.
Candidates who possess exceptional skill at making technical content accessible to a broad audience are especially desired.
The candidate will be expected to teach the following courses: LSCM 4321 Production and Operations Management, LSCM 4322 Business Process, Quality, and Lean Management, LSCM 4326 Global Procurement and Strategic Sourcing.
Other assigned courses may include LSCM 4323 Supply Chain Management and BUSI 3311 Business Statistics.
Additional summer teaching opportunities may be available depending on student demand and department needs.
Some scholarly contributions are also required. The candidate is expected have sufficient scholarly and/or professional activities to have "scholarly academic" status upon arrival per AACSB faculty classifications, and to have a healthy pipeline of works in progress toward publication, where health is measured more by viability and anticipated impact than by number and/or status. Scholarship is but one category of currency and impact with which faculty may engage: others include maintaining a recognized professional certification, presenting at academic conferences, engaging in consulting or other industry-r
