Overview

There is a lot of variety in different types of academic institutions, but we usually only get exposure to a few in the regular course of our education. This variations has major impacts in how competitive your application will be, what you can expect in joining a particular institution, and how comfortably the institution's priorities will fit your own career goals. This workshop is designed to help you understand these differences and assess your preparedness. Whether you are in the midst of an active job search or planning for the future, this is a great opportunity to learn more about finding your next faculty position!
