Applications are invited for a tenure-track faculty position in the Quantitative Analysis (QA) area. The appointment is expected to be at the Assistant or Associate Professor level without tenure; however, exceptional scholars at any rank are encouraged to apply and prior experience is valued. Salary is competitive and summer research support is provided. The University of Virginia is an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer. Women and minorities and those with significant international experience are especially encouraged to apply.

The QA area is internationally recognized for its teaching excellence and as an academic leader in management science curriculum in MBA programs: and for research in Decision Analysis and Management Science. The area's required course has for nearly three decades been ranked by students as one of the most valuable courses they take in their first year at Darden.

The Darden School is likewise internationally recognized for its MBA and Executive Education programs (http://www.darden.virginia.edu/). It is recognized for its commitment to educational excellence and research focused on the real world of the practicing executive. Darden's teaching faculty is consistently awarded the highest marks for quality in business school rankings.

The area and school are seeking faculty with the ability to engage in and publish academic, issue-driven scholarship on significant business issues. Ideal candidates will have interests beyond their primary discipline, in keeping with the school's interdisciplinary approach. A doctorate or ABD in management science, business administration, or a related area is required. Initial teaching responsibilities will be the area's required core course. The applicant's development as a case-method teacher will be strongly supported by our faculty team. Over time, the applicant will be expected to develop the capacity to communicate with practicing managers and executives, for which significant opportunities exist, such as through Darden's Executive Education programs.

The review of applications will begin September 1, 2008 and the position is expected to begin in Summer/Fall, 2009. Applicants must send a Curriculum Vita (including research accomplishments, teaching experience, and publications) and references to:
