Logo Institution Dakota State University Working Title Professor of Practice - Cyber Leadership, Intelligence, and International Programs Posting Number F01034P Department DSU-Arts & Sciences Physical Location of Position (City) Posting Text

The College of Arts and Sciences at Dakota State University in Madison, SD invites applications for a Professor of Practice. The position is a 9-month, full-time, benefit-eligible, term position.

Description of Duties in the Position: This faculty position has responsibility for enriching, developing, and supporting three distinct areas of the university: DSU's academic program in Cyber Leadership and Intelligence (CLI), The General Beadle Honors Program, and in DSU's International Studies program. The exact nature of that responsibility will be determined by the successful candidate with leadership from the college dean.

Cyber Leadership and Intelligence: The CLI program is designed for students who have an interest in world cultures, international politics, and cyber systems. As a unique program nationally, CLI provides education in leadership concepts and practices, knowledge in professional ethics, sharpened communication skills, an investment in digital forensics and the study of world affairs and human behavior. The program combines elements of cyber operations, foreign language, history, economics, sociology, and psychology. This program allows students to study digital forensics while also gaining a background in world culture, cyber ethics and human behavior, receiving a robust education in world affairs, culture and society, and cyber investment

DSU Honors Program: The General Beadle Honors experience features five key elements: Valuable Class Time, Sophisticated Content, Research, Quality over Quantity, and Experiential Learning. The Honors Program trains students to successfully complete their degree and get rewarding jobs, but it also nurtures intellectual curiosity beyond the degree requirements to open life-long avenues of fulfillment. It is about how to make a life in addition to how to make a living. Many honors courses involve funded off-campus experiences that are part of course content.

International Studies Program: This portion of the work assignment will involve supporting DSU's mission of promoting international education and building a strong foundation of cultural understanding at the university. This goal is accomplished through two distinct efforts: Bringing international students to campus for study and degree completion and developing study abroad programs for our traditional residential students. The Professor of Practice will support the recruiting of international students from around the world but particularly from Asia, Australia, Japan, Singapore and other countries in that region of the world. In addition, the Professor of Practice will help develop a strong study abroad program providing for DSU students a chance to pursue college studies in a foreign country. Students have the opportunity to attend lectures or carry out research at a foreign university or through their DSU's study-abroad program.

Education and Experience Requirements for the Position
  • At least 5 years professional experience in national security, intelligence, and defense.
  • Documented experience in program delivery, leadership, and organizational development.
  • At least 5 years experience with the international intelligence community.
  • Master's Degree minimum.
  • Ability to establish and lead organizations applying the skills and experience of specialist organizations and individuals.
  • A thorough understanding of international relations.
  • Teaching experience.
