Academic Job Market Tune-up

Going on the academic job market this semester? It’s time for a tune-up! Join Dan Olson-Bang, Director of Professional and Career Development, and Tracy Balduzzi, Associate Director of Strategic Initiatives in the Graduate School, each day next week (Sept. 3-6) from 10-11:30, Lyman Hall 312 for advice and feedback on your materials, questions about the process, and anything job-market related.

We will offer a few minutes of thoughts on each of the below topics, loosely based on the structure of Beyond the Professoriate’s 2024 Academic Job Market Boot Camp (replay videos can be found here). Following each brief presentation, we will hear YOUR questions and concerns and give brief critiques of materials.
Day 1: CVs/Cover Letters
Day 2: Research Statements
Day 3: Teaching Statement and Teaching Portfolio
Day 4: Diversity Statements
