Positions
The Department of Strategy and Entrepreneurship of Tilburg University invites dynamic and passionate individuals to apply for a position as a teaching-oriented Assistant Professor of Entrepreneurship and Business Innovation. We have two position openings. As one of our new Assistant Professors of Entrepreneurship and Business Innovation, you will play a pivotal role in nurturing the enterprising spirit of our students. You will:
- Co-teach innovative, experiential Entrepreneurship and Business Innovation courses, focusing on design thinking, product development, business modeling, and business planning.
- Collaborate with industry professionals such as scale-up entrepreneurs, professional investors, corporate entrepreneurs, and new business developers to bring real-world insights into your classroom and ensure our students benefit from the latest trends and practices.
- Contribute to the department’s cohesion and enterprising spirit. We expect you to challenge the status quo and proactively contribute to our endeavors.
You will teach (mostly) courses in the BSc Entrepreneurship & Business Innovation program and supervise graduation projects. The E&BI program is unparalleled in its ambition to provide a relevant and evidence-based academic degree program that equips and empowers future business innovators and entrepreneurs. Its curriculum is designed to introduce students to the scholarly evidence base that provides a solid basis to develop professional competence. The program complements more traditional courses with experiential, challenge-based, and team-learning-based courses. These offer a hands-on learning journey, enabling students to immerse themselves in real-world challenges and opportunities to start and scale businesses and learn through and from immersing.
Your teaching tasks will ensure you develop beyond traditional teaching roles; you will coach, mentor, and bridge between academia and practice, guiding students as they prepare to become pioneers who tackle substantive societal challenges. Successful candidates demonstrate a passionate drive to become a teaching-oriented scholar in Entrepreneurship and/or Business Innovation.
We can hire applicants to join the Department in the summer of 2024. We are looking for candidates with a Ph.D. from a reputable university, evidence of strong teaching, and some demonstrated research potential.
