Candidates should demonstrate successful research outcomes, such as high-quality peer-reviewed journal publications, conference presentations, and successful grant applications in the entrepreneurship area. Successful candidates will also demonstrate excellence in teaching and a strength in building innovative entrepreneurial programs. Direct experience as an entrepreneur or advising entrepreneurs is an asset. Candidates will have a Ph.D. in Entrepreneurship or related field with the emphasis on Entrepreneurship.
The mission of the DeGroote School of Business is to foster interdisciplinary thinking and evidence-based management in order to benefit business and society. Our vision is to be globally recognized as a leader in research, teaching, and community-building - especially in healthcare management and the management of digital innovation. We support a culture that embraces bold and interdisciplinary thinking; drives the creation and application of evidence-based knowledge; and fosters collegial activity undertaken with integrity. Three core values underpin all we do: innovation, collaboration, and generosity.
In support of this mission, the DeGroote School of Business is building the McLean Centre for Collaborative Discovery, which will have facilities specifically designed to increase engagement among McMaster students, community members, and industry partners. The successful candidate is expected to take a leadership role in building programming with this space in support of the DeGroote School of Business' mission.
