Faculty of the School of Business primarily deliver programming to business students, but they may also deliver courses in other programs. Included in the role of a faculty are learner performance support and evaluation, curriculum development and maintenance, facilitation of student field placements, and maintenance of strong relationships with industry groups and knowledge of trends in their respective disciplines. You will keep current in your discipline and area of instruction.

Faculty may be called upon to develop and deliver business development, part-time studies or on-line courses, to participate in program promotional activities and to assist in growing and improving business programs.
