Since 1878, Western University has been committed to serving our communities through the pursuit of academic excellence and by providing students, faculty, and community members with life-long opportunities for intellectual, social, and cultural growth.  We seek excellent students, faculty, and staff to join us in what has become known as the "Western Experience" - an opportunity to contribute to a better world through the development of new knowledge, new abilities, new connections, and new ways to make a difference. 

The DAN Department of Management and Organizational Studies invites applications from exceptional candidates to fill two full-time positions in Finance. The DAN Department of Management and Organizational Studies is an innovative and rapidly expanding interdisciplinary department in the Faculty of Social Science (FSS) at The University of Western Ontario (Western University) with over 3,800 students enrolled. This unique department combines management studies with a strong foundation in the social sciences. Candidates demonstrating a commitment to working in an interdisciplinary environment will be preferred. FSS is the largest faculty at Western University with over 7,300 undergraduates and nearly 700 graduate students enrolled, and it is one of the largest and top-ranked social science faculties in Canada. Close to one half of all FSS students are enrolled in DAN’s undergraduate programs alone. We invite you to visit our website: http://www.dan.uwo.ca.
