The July Grad Student/Postdoc Professional Development seminar will be Part 1 (of 2) covering the academic job search.  In this session, we will focus on the preparation of faculty application materials, i.e. CV/cover letter, the research plan, statement of teaching philosophy, and recommendation letters.  We have assembled a group of faculty panelists who have recently served on search committees, and who understand what departments/universities are looking for in faculty candidates.  Panelists will include:

Debarun Majumdar - Texas State University Professor (Sociology/Statistics)

Rick Russell - UT-Austin Molecular Biosciences Professor

Jennifer Brodbelt - UT-Austin Chemistry Professor and Department Chair

As always, pizza and drinks will be served.
