Biography

James Tanoos, Ph.D., is a Clinical Associate Professor at Purdue University. He has worked in various roles in higher education for more than 19 years in Indianapolis, West Lafayette, Terre Haute, and Vincennes. He earned his Bachelor’s degree from Purdue University, his Master’s degree from Indiana University, and his Doctorate from Purdue University. Before he entered higher education, he worked as an intern for Volume Services, a supply-chain partner for the Minnesota Twins in Minneapolis, MN (1998), in marketing/operations for Conseco in Carmel, IN (1999-2001), and as the department head for the Sen. Byrd Amendment (Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act of 2000) in the US Customs and Border Protection office in Indianapolis, IN (2001-2005).

Jim taught graduate courses in each of the three higher education institutions in his hometown of Terre Haute IN: Indiana State University, Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College, and Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology. He was an Assistant Professor and Associate Professor (2006-2015) at SMWC, where he served as the faculty assembly president for two consecutive terms, and was an instructor from 2006-2015 at ISU via the College of Technology through the Corrections Education Program (CEP) at the US Penitentiary as well as via the Scott College of Business. A signature project at both institutions involved the integration of the Indiana Pacers collegiate ticket selling competition into his sales course curricula. Jim's background as an employee at Purdue University involves a stint as an adjunct in West Lafayette and Purdue Polytechnic Lafayette from 2004-2008, and he has also been an instructor in the Purdue Honors College, Purdue College of Education’s Gifted Education Research and Resource Institute program, and Purdue Polytechnic’s ProSTAR/D-Tech graduate program. He completed the Purdue Center for Intercultural Learning, Mentorship, Assessment, and Research (CILMAR) advanced intercultural-pedagogy grant (IPG) cohort as well as VEIL (Virtual Experiential Intercultural Learning) and COIL (Collaborative Online International Learning) projects where his students worked with undergraduate peers in the Netherlands and Germany. Jim is a GIL (Growing Intercultural Leaders) Level 3 fellow and has led Study Abroads to Europe since 2017 (non-pandemic).

He has published articles in more than thirty-five international journals and has presented academic work at more than twenty-two international academic conferences on a range of disciplines including international economics, supply chain management, educational pedagogy, operations management, and industrial technology, including the invited keynote presentation at five international conferences. Jim participates in editorial review for several global academic journals and is a peer-reviewer for the Higher Learning Commission in Chicago, IL., where he received a peer corps award for 10 years of service in 2023. He is a longtime avid fan of Purdue football and basketball (as well as IU basketball).
