What is a strategic management professor?

Strategic Management Professors are academic professionals who teach, research, and publish in the field of strategic management, which focuses on how organizations formulate, implement, and evaluate cross-functional decisions to achieve long-term objectives. They typically work at universities or business schools, educating students on topics like competitive strategy, business policy, and organizational theory. In addition to teaching, they may conduct research, mentor students, and contribute to academic and professional communities. Their work helps shape future business leaders and advances knowledge in the field of management.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a strategic management professor?

To thrive as a Strategic Management Professor, you need an advanced degree (typically a PhD) in business or a related field, strong research background, and expertise in strategic management concepts. Familiarity with academic research tools, statistical software (such as SPSS or Stata), and experience with learning management systems like Canvas or Blackboard are often required. Exceptional communication, critical thinking, and mentorship abilities help foster student engagement and collaborative research. These skills and qualifications are vital for delivering high-quality education, advancing research in the field, and preparing students for leadership roles.

What types of real-world projects or collaborations might a strategic management professor engage in with students?

Strategic Management Professors often incorporate experiential learning into their courses by partnering with local businesses or organizations for consulting projects, case analyses, or strategic planning exercises. These collaborations give students hands-on experience in applying theoretical frameworks to real organizational challenges, while professors facilitate and oversee the process. Such projects also help professors stay connected with current industry trends, enhance their own research, and expand professional networks that can benefit both students and faculty.

Job Description:

\"At Baruch College we believe that student success is everyone’s responsibility\"


Baruch College, a senior college of the City University of New York (CUNY), is located in the historic Gramercy/Flatiron district between Midtown and Lower Manhattan. This prime location offers significant professional opportunities to interact with operations, supply chain, and analytics professionals across various sectors, including healthcare, retail, banking and finance, technology, transportation, and government.


The Zicklin School of Business, New York City’s premier public business school, is renowned for its excellence in offering nationally ranked business programs. These include BBA and MBA degrees; specialized MS degrees; executive programs; and the Zicklin PhD in Business (which includes a specialization in Management & Entrepreneurship) offered jointly with the CUNY Graduate Center. The Strategy faculty routinely publish in top-tier journals and host internationally-known scholars in the department’s research seminar series.


The Narendra Paul Loomba Department of Management at the Zicklin School of Business is pleased to invite applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor in Strategic Management, commencing in August 2027, subject to final budget approval.


Compensation and Benefits:

$163,000- $178,500; salary commensurate with education and experience

The successful candidate will be expected to develop and maintain a rigorous research agenda in strategic management, leading to publications in top-tier journals such as Strategic Management Journal, Organization Science, and Journal of International Business Studies, as well as contribute to the doctoral concentration in Management & Entrepreneurship. We especially welcome applicants conducting research with an emphasis on global contexts and/or strategy analytics.


Junior faculty in the strategic management area typically teach BBA courses in strategic management. More senior faculty (i.e., senior assistant professor and higher) are expected to contribute to the Zicklin School’s growing catalog of courses at the MBA and MS levels and to support the growth initiatives for the BBA in Management. Applicants should be able to teach in multiple modalities (in-person, online, hybrid) and participate in Zicklin programs offered both on campus and with our global partners.
