The Academic Job Search: Research and Teaching Statements

The research and teaching statements are the subtlest part of your package. The research statement highlights the value of your work to date, but more crucially, it needs to illustrate your bright future as an academic. As perhaps the most misunderstood and often the most poorly written document of them all, the teaching statement needs to reveal your burgeoning identity in the classroom. Join Dan Olson-Bang, Director of Professional and Career Development at the Graduate School, to learn how to make these essential documents become core to a package that stands out from the competition. Arrive ~11:45 a.m. for free lunch!

This session is part of the 4-day Academic Job Search series for graduate students and postdocs, May 18-21: REGISTER HERE.
