Bryant University seeks to fill a full-time Lecturer in Finance position. The successful candidate will have a strong commitment to excellence in teaching and to departmental and University service. While we welcome applications from candidates in all areas of finance, we have a particular need for a candidate with a background in corporate finance, possibly with additional education or experience in international or multinational finance.

We also offer a specialized concentration in financial services for undergraduate students and offer graduate courses in Finance as part of Masters degree programs.
