Details

This series of zoom panels is for those near the end of their doctorate (or other terminal degree) who are considering a faculty career. It will be most useful for those currently on the academic job market, or who plan to be on the academic job market in the next year. Each of the panelists in these zoom sessions completed their degree at Mizzou and are now postdoctoral scholars or faculty at Mizzou or elsewhere in the US. In each session, they will share their experiences of the academic job market and their current roles, and answer attendees’ questions. This session will focus on the panelists’ experiences of navigating academic interviews, job talks, and campus visits.
