From an email that I received yesterday:
The
Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law at Arizona State University, the oldest law
school in the nation’s sixth largest city, invites applications for a position
on its clinical law faculty as the Director of the Innovation Advancement
Program (IAP). The IAP is an interdisciplinary clinic devoted to a wide
array of legal and business planning services for inventors, technology entrepreneurs, tech transfer professionals,
and emerging technology companies. The Director will be expected to lead
all aspects of the IAP’s operations including: educating students in both
classroom and live client formats, identifying and choosing clients, recruiting
students, curriculum development, relationship building within the university,
relationship building with the Arizona entrepreneurial ecosystem, and fund
raising activities. The selected candidate will also be expected to
fulfill the duties of a faculty member of the Sandra Day O’Connor College of
Law. More information about the IAP is available at www.law.asu.edu/iap.
Minimum qualifications for the position include a JD degree,
3 years of experience either running a similar law school clinic or substantive
experience providing legal counseling to entrepreneurs and early stage startup
companies. Preferred applicants will have demonstrated experience as a leader
in the field or the potential to become a leading figure in the field, an
interest in the business side of entrepreneurship and startups (not just the
legal issues they face), and an ability to foster relationships with faculty
and departments across the university, and an interest in building
relationships in the Arizona entrepreneurial community.
The application deadline for the position is 15th
February, 2013; if not filled, the 1st of the month thereafter until
the position is filled or the search is closed. To apply, please submit a
CV and references to Ms. Gina Wilson, Appointments Committee Coordinator,
Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law, Arizona State University, 1100 S.
McAllister Ave., Tempe, AZ 85287-7906, or electronically to GinaWilson@asu.edu.
