Simon Fraser University is consistently ranked as Canada’s #1 comprehensive university and recognized globally for its research and teaching. With thriving urban campuses in BC’s three largest cities – Vancouver, Surrey, and Burnaby – SFU has 31,000 undergraduate and 5,700 graduate students supported by more than 7,000 faculty and staff. A place where innovative education, cutting-edge research, and community outreach intersect, SFU aims to be Canada’s leading engaged university.
The Beedie School of Business has championed lifelong learning, productive change, and the need to be innovative as it delivers research and teaching that creates impact. Among the 1% of business schools accredited by both AACSB and EQUIS, SFU Beedie is a top-ranked research school that believes in the power of business to spark ideas, fuel innovation, and advance society. With over 3,500 undergraduate and 800 graduate students, SFU Beedie is a recognized trailblazer in offering relevant, experiential, and student-centered programming, including Canada’s first Executive MBA program and North America’s only EMBA in Indigenous Business Leadership. Beedie is also home to several notable endeavours, including some of Canada’s largest student-run investment funds (BEAM and SIAS) and the Charles Chang Institute for Entrepreneurship, which fosters interdisciplinary collaboration across SFU. With deeply committed alumni and a strong history of giving back, Beedie also benefits from a robust fundraising program.
With its strategic vision to develop innovative and socially responsible business leaders with a global perspective through education, inspired by research and grounded in practice, SFU Beedie delivers on its core values of diversity, action, research, and engagement with purpose in everything it does. With undergraduate, graduate, PhD and executive education programs that are supported by extensive partnerships with public, private, and non-profit organizations, SFU Beedie’s goal is to produce broadly educated, enterprising and socially responsible professionals.
As a member of the university’s senior academic team, the next Dean of SFU Beedie will be a visionary leader with a strong service orientation and entrepreneurial spirit. The ideal candidate will bring a background of successful strategic academic leadership, a deep commitment to the principles of equity and diversity, and a proven record of promoting inclusive excellence in all its forms. A relationship builder and a champion of lifelong learning, the Dean will meaningfully engage students, staff, faculty, government, the business community and other constituents in ensuring SFU Beedie continues to offer leading-edge, transformative learning opportunities that develop globally minded leaders who are ready for the world. The next Dean will have a research and teaching record consistent with appointment as a Full Professor at SFU in the Beedie School.
