Job Description

The California School of Management and Leadership (CSML) has a long history of more than 35 years with an alumni base spread globally. Graduates from our programs are employed in diverse industries, disciplines and positions in several types of organizations in more than 50 countries around the world. CSML is known for multicultural and multinational education to a student population with diverse backgrounds. Stalwarts such as Dr. Igor Ansoff and Dr. Efraim Turban laid the conceptual foundation of the school's academic mission in preparing tomorrow's global leaders. CSML concentrates on professional practice, applied theory and contemporary techniques. Our goal is to educate individuals who will go out into the world to accomplish great things in the communities around the world they serve.

The Management School is in growth mode and plans to continue to grow the ground programs, expand in the online modality, as well as expand geographically to Alliant's other California campuses. The programs have a strong global dimension with many of the professors and students having a global background coming from different countries and having worked abroad. This multiculturalism is thoroughly integrated into the classes at CSML. Students benefit from having an accomplished cohort- many who are working professionals or international students and/or former US military. This experience creates a network that enhances the student learning environments in their programs and in co-curricular activities. Many of our doctoral students publish either by writing books or conference papers or journal articles, which further enhances their professional stature.

The school offers programs at the Masters and Doctoral levels.
