Academic General Faculty, Technology & Operations Management (TOM) at InsideHigherEd

Description

The Darden School of Business at the University of Virginia invites applications for an Academic General Faculty (AGF, non-tenure track) in TOM, beginning in the fall of 2026. Most commonly, AGFs will be on either a Teaching Track or a Practice Track. For the Teaching Track, primary responsibilities would be teaching and developing curricular materials. For the Practice Track, primary responsibilities would be teaching in both MBA and Executive Education programs and writing with a view to influencing practice. AGF applicants typically bring a distinctive competency to the School without necessarily being expected to engage in the breadth of contribution of a tenured or tenure-track faculty.

The TOM area at Darden specializes in influential academic and practitioner-oriented research, and teaching excellence. There is broad latitude with respect to specific area of research interest. The area offers a variety of required and elective courses to residential, part-time, and executive MBA students. TOM faculty also teach actively in Darden’s non-degree Executive Education programs.

The Darden School of Business offers MBA and executive education programs with a global reach that consistently rank among the best in the world. The University of Virginia is regarded as one of the nation's finest public universities and Charlottesville is consistently ranked among the best places to live in the United States. In addition, Darden has a new state-of-the-art campus in the Washington D.C. area, providing additional global access for our research and teaching.

The Darden School of Business is an organization with a strong culture that reflects our mission and vales. We foster a learning environment that inspiries and engages people from many different backgrounds, and we are committed to creating a candidate experience that is respectful, transparent, and reflective of who we are as a business school.
