Position Summary:
The University of Wisconsin-Madison invites nominations and applications for the position of dean of the Wisconsin School of Business. Founded in 1900, the Wisconsin School of Business (WSB) established one of the first five business programs in the nation. That entrepreneurial spirit remains strong.

The Wisconsin School of Business is one of the 12 major schools/colleges that make up the University of Wisconsin-Madison, the flagship university of the University of Wisconsin System. It has consistently been ranked among the world's top research universities. Last September, UW-Madison was ranked 12th among public institutions in U.S. News & World Report. UW-Madison enrolls 43,000+ students and has more than 20,000 employees. We value our reputation for academic excellence and educational innovation, and have made a strong commitment to progress in areas of diversity and inclusion.

The dean of the WSB serves as the chief academic and executive officer of the school with responsibility for faculty and staff development, personnel oversight, fund raising, budget planning and management, curriculum, and student academic affairs. The school is comprised of approximately 80 tenured and tenure track faculty and 260 staff.

Drawing on the immense intellectual and cultural resources of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, the WSB educates students from all walks of life through our nationally and internationally recognized undergraduate, master's, MBA, and doctoral programs, as well as executive and continuing education programs. The school features: state-of-the-art facilities in Grainger Hall and in its executive education facility, the Fluno Center; a tradition of strong alumni engagement and partnerships with the business community, including significant philanthropic resources in support of research and innovation; and working partnerships with departments across campus that include professional schools and a deliberate emphasis on strengthening the connections between business, sciences, and the liberal arts.

The WSB is a vibrant community that honors the university's commitment to research, teaching and public service. WSB believes public research universities hold a great, untapped potential to address the world's most complex challenges, and the incoming dean has an opportunity to shape the future of the school through visionary leadership. The WSB is a passionate and diverse community of scholars -- leaders and learners addressing business challenges, inspiring emergent leadership, and improving lives.

UW-Madison has a longstanding tradition of collaborative decision-making concerning the operation of the university. Shared governance is a unique and important aspect of life at UW-Madison.
