Job description

Description
Thank you for your interest in teaching at the Cox School of Business of Southern Methodist University in Dallas Texas.
Per our faculty selection process, we typically set course schedules and make course staffing decisions a year in advance. Thus, for the current and next year, most course staffing decisions have already been completed. However, we sometimes have needs that arise during the year.
Please review the Cox School course offerings http://www.smu.edu/catalogs and craft a short memo which indicates your teaching interest, what content you feel most comfortable with, specifically if you have past undergraduate and graduate teaching experiences, and it will be in this file for the department chairs to review.
At this time we are not delivering course material exclusively on-line.
Qualifications
Teaching for the Finance department generally requires a Ph.D. in Finance or a finance related field and 10+ year of industry experience.
Application Instructions
Upload your resume, a list of classes previously taught and memo indicating your teaching interests for review.
