Overview

Have you ever wondered why higher education feels stuck? Or imagined rebuilding it from the ground up? Imagine a university where advanced technology enhances every student's learning experience through personalized, adaptive, and real-world education.

San Francisco Bay University (SFBU), an innovative, nonprofit, WASC-accredited university located in the heart of Silicon Valley, seeks a forward-thinking and experienced Online Adjunct Professor of Accounting to teach ACC 501 Managerial Accounting within our MBA Pro+ program.

The MBA Pro+ program prepares current and aspiring business leaders with the financial and managerial knowledge needed to succeed in today's technology-driven global economy.

Students learn to interpret financial statements, apply accounting principles, evaluate financial performance, analyze managerial accounting information, understand auditing and regulatory requirements, and leverage modern accounting technologies to solve complex business challenges. Through executive case studies, simulations, and applied consulting projects, graduates develop the analytical, ethical, and strategic skills necessary to support organizational accountability and long-term success.
