Who We Are

The University of Colorado at Boulder, and the city of Boulder, offers a rich intellectual, cultural, recreational, and family-friendly environment. Boulder is widely recognized as an entrepreneurial hub, with active venture capital, technology, natural foods, and renewable energy sectors; it is consistently recognized as one of the best places to live in the United States.

The economy of the Front Range of Colorado is strong, and private support for the University and the Leeds School is increasing steadily, as evidenced by our new programs and solid MBA program. The University of Colorado and the Leeds School of Business are nationally recognized for the excellence of our faculty, programs, and students.

The Assistant/Associate Teaching Professor will be required to teach seven classes per year, with possible assignments at the undergraduate and graduate levels, throughout the academic year. We expect that the new faculty member will have 3-4 course preparations in their first year, and fewer thereafter. In their role, the Assistant/Associate Teaching Professor will be involved in curriculum development, course creation, and content delivery.

The position also requires engagement with the Michael A. Klump Center for Real Estate.
