The Department of Management full-time faculty has been delivering fine services to our stakeholders. Our faculty members excel in the following areas:

  • Average teaching evaluations range from 4.5-4.6 (5 is highest) per semester
  • Research appears in  numerous top-tier referred journals every year
  • Scholarly books written and published each year
  • Involvement in many academic activities, serving as editors, reviewer board members, guest editors, and program chairs
  • the Department supports the School and the University, with faculty in key administrative positions (e.g., Graduate School Dean, Undergraduate Business Dean, Health Program Director, Nonprofit Management Center Co-Director)
  • the Department supports the business community in a multitude of ways and channels (e.g., from offering consulting courses and business plan competition, to providing public seminars and consulting). Overall, our faculty’s teaching and research orientation is well balanced by their extensive involvement with the business community. Field research, diagnostic consulting, and training assistance are just some of the ways our faculty maintain an ongoing relationship with local, national, and international practitioners. This dynamic balance among teaching, research, and involvement with practicing executives offers students and faculty a stimulating environment for learning and professional development.

RESEARCH

In recent years, faculty publications have appeared in all flagship journals in management including: Academy of Management Journal, Academy of Management Review, Administrative Science Quarterly, Journal of Applied Psychology, Journal of International Business Studies, Management Science, Manufacturing and Service Operations Management, Strategic Management Journal, Organization Science, IIE Transactions, to name a few. Among MGT faculty, one has recently earned the distinction of being the most prominent publisher of refereed journal articles, world-wide, in international business. Our faculty’s books and articles on leadership, strategy, international business, corporate governance, supply chain and operations, and business in emerging economies have been widely cited. Several colleagues have won best paper awards in major journals and at annual conferences, and many serve on the editorial boards of refereed journals in their respective fields.

TEACHING

Together the faculty teach over 130 undergraduate and graduate courses annually, earning average teaching evaluations that consistently place them in the top two or three of the departments within the School. Several faculty members have won School and University wide teaching awards for their pedagogical excellence. New colleagues are provided with considerable support, including videotaping of class sessions and peer reviews, to help them meet the high teaching expectations within the department. Faculty are also involved in overseeing student internships, providing guidance to students on research projects and directed studies, serving on student committees, and helping to organize various student clubs (e.g., Entrepreneurship Club, Human Resource Club).

SERVICE

MGT Faculty contribute in numerous ways to the University and broader communities.  Among the various types of service activities are: involvement in school-level committees (School Council, Tenure and Promotion Committee); University-wide committees (Faculty Senate, Tenure and Promotion Committee, Graduate School committees, SACS committees, etc), Miami-based community activities (e.g., service associated with the School’s Center for Non-Profit Management, lectures to various groups including those associated with the Chamber of Commerce, etc.), and professional service (four past presidents of professional associations, committee assignments/chairs within professional associations, conference chairs/organizers, etc). In addition, MGT faculty members serve as editor, associate editor, or department editor of major referred journals, including Journal of International Business Studies, Journal of World Business, Journal of Management, Management and Organization Review, IIE Transactions, Organizational Research Methods, Group & Organization Management, among others. Moreover, a number of faculty serve as Editorial Review Board members for leading journals in management. Two faculty serve as full-time administrators (one within the Business School and the other at the University level).
