The Center for Innovation in Engineering Education (CIEE) at Princeton University seeks applications for the Dean's Visiting Professorship in Entrepreneurship for Academic Years 2009-2010 and 2010-2011.

The Visiting Professor is expected to bring a unique and creative educational experience to the students (undergraduate and/or graduate) through classroom teaching and other projects. Educational innovation is of particular interest in this appointment.

Candidates will be evaluated according to their scholarship and teaching ability, and their track record of innovations and innovative teaching methods as applied to entrepreneurship.

The application deadline is November 1 of each year. The applicant should indicate in his/her the preferred academic year for their visit.
