About the position
The Harbert College of Business at Auburn University invites applications for a full-time, nine-month, tenure-track Assistant Professor position in Marketing.

While there is a desire for sales, candidates of all marketing backgrounds are encouraged to apply. The standard teaching load for tenured faculty within the college is 2/2.

Responsibilities include maintaining an active research pipeline leading to high-quality publications in top academic journals, a commitment to excellent teaching, and meaningful engagement with our department's growing programs as well as the business community. Faculty are also expected to contribute to departmental, college, and university service, and to help sustain our collegial and collaborative culture.
