OPEN RANK
(TEMPRORARY)
The American University Kogod School of Business invites applications and nominations for two renewable full-time non-tenure track accounting and tax faculty positions beginning Fall 2007. Candidates must be capable of teaching advanced courses in the Master of Science in Accounting (MSA) and the Master of Science in Taxation (MST) curricula. Although all accounting faculty are expected to participate in the scholarly work of the Kogod Accounting and Taxation Department, these positions are primarily designated for outstanding teachers who can also contribute to the Department’s various service and professional outreach activities.

Candidates must have CPA or equivalent credentials as well as substantial professional experience. An appropriate master’s degree is required, and an accounting or tax doctorate is desired but not essential. A record of successful teaching at the university level is highly valued. Faculty rank will be commensurate with candidate qualifications.

Salary and benefits are highly competitive. Review of candidates will begin immediately and will continue until positions are filled. Electronic submissions are welcome. Please send letter of application, resume, recent teaching evaluations, and other relevant information to:
