    UNIVERSITY OF VICTORIA - The Faculty of Business is seeking to fill a tenure
    track position (rank open) in Sustainability / Business & Society. The
    ability to teach Strategy and an interest in one of our areas of
    specialization-International Business, Entrepreneurship, and Service
    Management-will be considered assets.

    Applicants for these positions should have earned a PhD (or be ABD) and have
    a record of teaching and research that is commensurate with their
    experience. Our interest is in attracting highly motivated researchers,
    capable of publishing in top research journals, to add to the already
    vibrant research community at the Faculty of Business. While we are open to
    all types of research, our desire is to reinforce our three areas of
    specialization: international business, entrepreneurship, and service
    management.

    Our teaching orientation is international, integrative, innovative, and
    experiential. We emphasize an experiential approach that includes a
    mandatory co-op program for all students, international exchanges and
    overseas co-op work opportunities. In line with this approach, a candidate's
    business experience would be highly valued.

    Aside from the research and teaching community, Victoria is located in one
    of the most beautiful parts of Canada. We enjoy a very moderate west coast
    climate with an active cultural scene as well as easy access to all types of
    outdoor activities.

    Send a letter of application with curriculum vitae, appropriate evidence of
    research and teaching skill, and three references to: Dr. Ali Dastmalchian,
    Dean, Faculty of Business, University of Victoria, PO Box 1700, STN CSC,
    Victoria, B.C. V8W 2Y2. Telephone: (250) 721-6068. Fax: (250) 721-6613,
    e-mail: dastmal@business.uvic.ca, website: www.business.uvic.ca.

    The University of Victoria is an equity employer and encourages applications
    from women, persons with disabilities, visible minorities, Aboriginal
    Peoples, people of all sexual orientations and genders, and others who may
    contribute to the further diversification of the university. Consideration
    of applications will begin on September 1, 2006. Applications will be
    accepted until the positions are filled
