Call for Applications: 2012 OMT Junior Faculty Consortium, August 3, 2012
(Application Deadline: June 3, 2012)
The OMT Division is pleased to invite applications for the 2012 OMT Junior Faculty workshop. If you have started a faculty position in the last few years, this workshop is for you!
The workshop provides an intimate forum for interacting with senior colleagues and peers about how to prosper in your academic career. The workshop focuses on three areas: First, on developing your research for publication with the help of seasoned scholars in your area; second, on strategies for impact and growth as a scholar and teacher, and third, on navigating the early years of building a successful faculty career in diverse institutional settings. You will have a chance to interact with an exciting team of Faculty Fellows and diverse peers through developmental feedback on your research, panels, roundtable discussions and informal conversations.
This year’s Faculty Fellows offer diverse scholarly and geographic perspectives. Many have been editors for leading journals and won research and teaching awards. The roster includes:
