Additional Information:
The Marketing department is known for its collegiality. Across every faculty role, our 25 full-time colleagues are driven researchers and dedicated teachers, and several have earned teaching awards. Together they teach at every level of marketing education, from the BSBA through the MBA and Master of Science in Marketing to the PhD.
The non-tenure-track faculty are a close and accomplished group with a reputation for excellent teaching. Many come to the college from industry and remain closely connected to it. They partner with groups such as the Retail Advisory Board and the Sales Advisory Board to bring companies into the classroom through experiential and service-learning projects.
Walton College faculty collaborate with Walmart, Sam's Club, J.B. Hunt, and Tyson Foods, along with the many consumer-products and agency teams based here, including Procter & Gamble, General Mills, PepsiCo, and Saatchi & Saatchi X. The department also supports the college's strategic retail and professional sales programs. Walton students learn alongside the people who run these businesses, and Walton faculty help make those connections meaningful.
The teaching faculty contribute intellectually in different ways. Some publish peer-reviewed research. Others write for practitioners and popular audiences, consult, or lead industry collaborations that raise the university's profile. It is the goal of the college and the department that each colleague grows in the direction of their own strengths.

Tips for Your Professor of Marketing Job Search
Tailor your CV to scholarly expectations
Academic hiring committees want a CV that leads with publications, grant history, and teaching philosophy, not a resume summary. Front-load peer-reviewed journal articles, conference presentations, and any doctoral mentorship you've provided, before listing industry experience.
Write a teaching portfolio that shows range
Most professor of marketing search committees request a teaching portfolio alongside your dossier. Include syllabi for both lecture-heavy and experiential courses, student evaluation trends, and any curriculum you built from scratch to demonstrate that you can cover the department's full course load.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists professor of marketing openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Target departments by research fit, not prestige
Committees hire for departmental gaps first. Read recent faculty publications and note which sub-fields are underrepresented, then position your research agenda as the missing piece rather than a general fit in your cover letter.
Prepare a job talk that bridges theory and practice
Most campuses ask finalists to present a 45-minute job talk. Marketing departments often want to see that your research has managerial or policy implications, so structure your talk around a real business or consumer problem your work addresses, not methodology alone.
Negotiate startup funds and course release, not just salary
Once you receive an offer, the most consequential items for a professor of marketing are research startup funds, course release for your first year, and conference travel support. Identify your must-haves before the conversation begins so you can prioritize clearly.
Professor of Marketing Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most professor of marketings?
The most active employers for professor of marketings right now are North Carolina State University, STETSON UNIVERSITY, and Cornell University, and the most openings are in Florida, Texas, and California, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Business school hiring tends to cluster around the fall and spring academic hiring seasons.
How many professor of marketing jobs are remote?
About 18% of professor of marketing openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, with the highest share in online program teaching roles and adjunct positions. Tenure-track and full-time faculty roles are more likely to require on-campus presence for student advising, committee work, and in-person instruction.
How do you become a professor of marketing?
To become a professor of marketing, you typically earn a PhD or doctoral degree in marketing or a related business discipline, publish research in peer-reviewed journals, and gain teaching experience through graduate assistantships or adjunct appointments. After completing your doctorate, you apply to open faculty positions through academic job postings, submit a full dossier including a cover letter, CV, teaching statement, and research statement, and complete a multi-round interview process that usually ends with an on-campus visit and job talk.
Can you get hired as a professor of marketing without a completed PhD?
Some institutions hire ABD candidates, meaning applicants who have completed all PhD requirements except the dissertation, for tenure-track or visiting roles on the condition that the degree is conferred by a set date. Community colleges and teaching-focused institutions occasionally hire candidates with a master's degree and strong industry experience for lecturer or adjunct roles, but research university positions almost universally require a completed doctorate.
What does the professor of marketing interview process look like?
The interview process for a professor of marketing position typically starts with a screening call with a faculty search committee, followed by a virtual interview that covers your research agenda, teaching philosophy, and departmental fit. Finalists are then invited for an on-campus visit lasting one to two days that includes a job talk presenting original research, meetings with faculty and the dean, a teaching demonstration, and sometimes a session with doctoral students. Decisions are usually communicated within a few weeks of the final visit.
