Tim Goles
first 2001-02 business faculty hire

Nov. 30, 2000

Tim Goles, recently signed a letter of intent to accept the Dean's offer for the position of Assistant Professor of Information Systems (pending the confirmation of his Ph.D. in MIS from the University of Houston, December 2000). Goles successfully defended his dissertation proposal, "The Impact of the Client-Vendor Relationship on IS Outsourcing Success" June, 2000.

He earned his M.B.A. from the University of Houston in 1999 and his B.B.A. in Finance from the University of Texas at Austin, 1979. Goles is currently working as a Teaching and Research Assistant and under Professor Rudy Hirschheim. A widely known and highly regarded scholar in the Information Systems, Hirschheim is the Tenneco/Chase International Chair in the Decision and Information Sciences Department at the University of Houston.

"Hirschheim recommends Goles to us highly," commented Professor Walz, who was a member of the recruiting committee. "In fact, Rudy told me last year that he considers Tim to be one of the best doctoral students with whom he has had the pleasure to work. I consider that to be high praise."

"Goles was genuinely impressed with UTSA and the path our College is forging," commented Sandra Welch, Interim Division Director for Accounting and Information Systems. "Tim was the candidate that best meets our critical needs in the growing IS area. He will be able to fill a gap in our course coverage and contribute to our research effort."
