Abstract:
Business schools in the United States have experienced improvements related to processes of institutional accreditation. Accreditation standards set forth by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) have influenced the recruitment and hiring practices of faculty members. We bring attention to and reflect on such practices to examine potential distortions in qualification standards for hiring new business faculty. In the current study, we analyzed recent job advertisements for business faculty identifying properties related to degree qualifications and other criteria. We found trends indicating many business schools specify preferences or requirements that candidates possess degrees from AACSB accredited schools.
