Job No: 496567
Position Type: full-time
Location: Lewisburg, PA
Categories: Accounting & Financial Management

The Accounting & Financial Management (ACFM) Department at Bucknell University's Freeman College of Management seeks to hire a full time clinical faculty member to teach business law and related topics to begin Spring 2021. Candidates should be willing and able to teach business law and one or two related courses such as real estate law, negotiations, or forensic accounting. Candidates should have a Juris Doctor. Candidates with pertinent professional experience will be given preference. The teaching load is six courses per year. Business law is a required course for both our accounting and finance majors and topics include those tested on the CPA exam. In addition to teaching, duties will include serving on department and/or college committees, individual student advising (including pre-law students), and student-focused activities such as advising professional student organizations. Salary is competitive and commensurate with experience. We expect to offer a five-year renewable contract.

The Freeman College, an AACSB-accredited unit, offers innovative professional education in the context of one of the nation's leading liberal arts universities. We believe that an education that combines technical skills and deep intellectual exploration is the best preparation for thoughtful and capable leaders. Thus, we seek faculty members capable of contributing to this mission.
