Villanova seeks to hire a Professor of Practice and Faculty Director of its Graduate Tax Program:

Villanova University Charles Widger School of Law seeks a distinguished tax practitioner to lead its Graduate Tax Program beginning in May/June 2022. The interdisciplinary Graduate Tax Program has over 250 full and part-time students enrolled in both on-campus and online courses. It offers a Master of Laws in Taxation (LLM) for lawyers and a Master of Taxation (MT) for non-lawyers, as well as Certificate Programs in specialized areas of taxation. The Faculty Director is responsible for leading and managing the Graduate Tax Program’s academic programs, including faculty, curriculum, and teaching, and working with the Program’s Staff Director to accomplish operational objectives.

The ideal candidate would be an experienced tax practitioner with excellent leadership and management skills who has some teaching experience in academia (e.g., as an adjunct professor). However, prior academic experience is not a requirement.

This continuing, full-time, 12-month, non-tenure-track faculty position will be filled at the Assistant/Associate or Full Professor of Practice level depending on the candidate’s experience and qualifications. The appointment is contingent on the candidate serving as the Faculty Director of the Graduate Tax Program.
