The Cornell SC Johnson College of Business (established on July 1, 2016) combines three AACSB-accredited Schools: The Samuel Curtis Johnson Graduate School of Management (Johnson), the Charles H. Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management (Dyson), and the School of Hotel Administration (Hotel School). Faculty have opportunities to teach across the three Schools’ degree programs in order to develop an appealing teaching load.

The School of Hotel Administration at Cornell University, the top-ranked hospitality management program worldwide, enrolls approximately 950 undergraduates and 150 graduate students. Founded in 1922, SHA is home to over 60 full-time resident faculty and over 13,000 alumni worldwide.

The College’s real estate faculty are all members of the Applied Economics and Policy Area, which consists of 48 faculty from across our three Schools, and offers opportunities for cross-school collaboration with a wider network of economists at Cornell University. The successful candidate could also affiliate with one of the College’s other six Areas (Accounting; Finance; Management & Organizations; Marketing & Management Communication; Operations, Technology & Information Management; Strategy & Business Economics), if appropriate to his or her expertise. The intent of this process is to recruit hires for the School of Hotel Administration.
