Job Description

The College of Business, Rikkyo University (Tokyo, Japan) invites applications for a position at the nontenured assistant professor level in international business.

Applicants should have a Ph.D. degree in business or a closely related field, with a track record or potentials of high quality research and teaching in English. Two thirds of undergraduate elective courses of the department of global business, and all the master level courses in the Master of International Business program, are taught in English. However, ability to also teach in Japanese is an advantage, and competence in the Japanese language is desirable for non-teaching duties and on campus communication. Preferences will be given to those with international business and strategic management.

The successful candidate will teach courses on international business, strategic management, among others, at both undergraduate and graduate levels.

The appointment will be effective from either April 1, 2015, or September 1, 2015.

Salary and compensation commensurate with qualifications and experience as determined by the university policy.

Rikkyo University, located in central Tokyo, is one of the oldest and highly selective private universities in Japan. Its College of Business is unique in that it is one of very few fully fledged bilingual (Japanese and English) business programs in Japan at both the undergraduate and the graduate levels.
