Assistant/Associate/Full Professor or Assistant/Associate/Full Teaching Professor and Faculty Director - Management, Entrepreneurship, & Technology (M.E.T.) Program

The University of California, Berkeley invites applications for a full-time Assistant, Associate or Full Professor, or a full-time Assistant, Associate or Full Teaching Professor. External applicants will hold a joint appointment between Haas School of Business and one or more of the academic departments in the College of Engineering (CoE), with the specific department and appointment split to be determined. The faculty will also be appointed as Faculty Director to support the leadership and teaching needs for the Management, Entrepreneurship, and Technology program (M.E.T.). Candidates should apply for consideration in the Professor series if they currently have or plan to engage in independent research within a specific field, in addition to teaching and service. Candidates should apply for consideration in the Teaching Professor series if their efforts are focused particularly on excellent teaching while engaging in a program of professional and/or scholarly activity, and service. Faculty in both series are members of the academic senate.
The anticipated start date is July 1, 2027.
The Faculty Director will lead strategic planning, corporate outreach, and fundraising for the program, in addition to assuming responsibility for the design and management of the curriculum and co- curricular experience of the M.E.T. students. The Faculty Director will teach M.E.T.-specific core courses each year that will integrate technology and business entrepreneurship.
