Texas A&M University-Commerce seeks an outstanding and experienced leader to serve as Dean of the College of Business.
A&M-Commerce, AACSB accredited, is a rapidly growing university, with a rising profile, making positive strides toward innovation and the future. Driving the ascending trajectory is the university's commitment to providing high-quality educational opportunities that prepare students for success, including those from low-income and first-generation backgrounds. The university offers 130 affordable degree programs and is becoming the school of choice for urban and rural Northeast Texas. Embracing a mission to transform lives, A&M-Commerce has seen an increase in overall enrollment with 12,094 students in Fall 2023, including over 3,700 graduate students. The most significant increase was among first-time freshmen, a remarkable 22.1% increase over last year and one of the highest overall percentage enrollment across the state of Texas.
The COB is headquartered in Dallas. The main campus is in Commerce, located in Northeast Texas, about 60 miles northeast of Dallas. The Dean will be expected to spend time in both locations, as needed to ensure the business school’s vitality and growth.
The successful candidate will be an entrepreneurial, innovative visionary who values students, faculty, and staff, and celebrates their successes. Candidates with significant academic leadership success are welcome to apply. A terminal degree in an appropriate discipline is required, as are credentials that merit appointment at the rank of full professor. An understanding of AACSB accreditation is a priority. Business experience outside of the academy is considered a plus.
