Harder Chairs will be appointed through national searches conducted by the Vice President for Academic Affairs in consultation with members of the Management and Business Department, the Dean of the Faculty and the Committee on Appointments, Promotions & Tenure. Appointments as Harder Professor will not exceed five years.
