III - Evaluation criteria

1 - The criteria for the selection of the successful applicant, approved by the selection committee, are the following:

a) In the quality of research criterion applications for the position of Associate Professor are assessed for the most part on the extent of international recognition of the applicant and the applicant’s research. In the areas of Economics, Finance, and Business Management the best international research is published in scholarly journals rather than books. The Faculdade de Economia, of the Universidade Nova de Lisboa - Nova School of Business and Economics – (hereinafter, Nova SBE) evaluates candidates for the position of Associate Professor based on their publication record in such journals, seeking to assess the impact of the published research in the scholarly community. Recognition of the quality of research is also influenced by the number of times an author and her/his research is cited by other scholars, and by the invitations extended to the candidate to sit on committees of leading journals. It is well understood that such invitations grow more plentiful as one’s career advances, and that applicants for the position of Associate Professor are typically earlier on their professional path. For this reason, greater weight is placed on the reputation of the journals in which the candidate’s work appears. What the selection committee hopes to see is scholarly activity that is both regular and recent, demonstrated by a consistent record of publishing over the last six years. Frequent citations and/or positions on the editorial boards/committees of well-respected journals, should this be the case, shall be considered favorably. Nova SBE wishes that its researchers publish their work in the finest international journals alongside the work of the world’s leading schools. Publication in top-ranked international journals in the areas of Economics, Finance, and Management is considered disproportionately more important than publishing in well-respected, “prestigious” (but not top) journals. Publishing in journals of acceptable-quality, but lower reputation, is given little consideration. In this quality of research criterion candidates are classified on a scale from 0 to 100. While not disregarding the opinion(s) of the jury, it is deemed useful to indicate some guidelines regarding the ranking of scholarly journals according to “top”, “prestigious”, and “other”. Two sources are considered as guidelines: the list of 50 journals defined by the Financial Times (FT), and the list of the Association of Business Schools (ABS). Journals are ranked as follows: Top: FT50 or ABS level 4; Prestigious: ABS level 3; Quality: ABS level 2; Others: ABS level 1 and other international peer-reviewed journals.

b) In the quality of teaching criterion candidates are classified on a scale from 0 to 100. Quality of teaching is assessed through student feedback course evaluations. Favorable attention is given to teaching awards, documented curricular or pedagogical innovations, and teaching materials published in leading publications. Experience in executive education and teaching in internationally recognized schools (understood to be those with AACSB, AMBA, and/or EQUIS accreditation) is appreciated.

c) In the activities of interest criterion candidates are classified on a scale from 0 to 100. Activities of interest in this area include organizational citizenship such as participation on academic juries, task forces, and assessment committees, although it is not expected that an applicant who is in the early phase of her/his career will have accrued substantial experience in non-academic administrative duties.

2 - The scope and impact of the applicant’s national and international activities will always be taken into account.

3 – Applications for Associate Professor position are assessed based on their publication record in such journals, seeking to assess the impact of the published research in the scholarly community.

IV - Composition of the selection committee

1 - The selection committee, appointed by order of the Rector of June 21, 2023, shall be composed of:

President:

Professor Pedro Manuel Sousa Mendes Oliveira, PhD, Full Professor of Nova SBE.

Members:

Professor Rodrigo Crisóstomo Pereira Belo, PhD, Full Professor of Nova SBE;

Professor Ting Li, PhD, Full Professor of Rotterdam School of Management.

Substitutes:

Professor Rita Maria Ferreira Duarte de Campos e Cunha, PhD, Full Professor of Nova SBE;

Professor Markus Weinemen, PhD, Full Professor of University of Cologne.

V - Evaluation of applicants

1 – Upon closing of the application period, the selection committee shall meet for selection of the candidates according to the criteria set forth in no. III above.

2 – If an application is rejected, the applicant will be notified according to the Code of Administrative Procedure.

3 – Once the applicants are accepted for consideration based upon the above criteria, the selection committee shall present a written opinion with the ranking of the applicants.

4 – The ordering of the applicants accepted for consideration is made by voting of the members.

VI - Equal opportunity Pursuant to line (h) of article 9 of the Constitution, the Public Administration, as an employer, actively promotes a rigorous policy of equal opportunity for men and women regarding hiring for employment and professional advancement, without any form of discrimination.
