Presentation Transcript

  1. The Academic MarketplaceGetting a Job • Curriculum vitae • Publish now! • Finding opportunities – use all means, • Especially email, phone calls from your advisor • Letters of reference

  2. Interviewing • Defending your thesis • How to interview individual faculty • Ask to meet with students • Tell what you would like to teach • Advanced course • Bread and butter middle courses • Introductory courses • Use their course numbers, titles!

  3. Tenure and All That • Publish or perish. • What counts, and how much? • Teaching matters, too. • “He who would save his life (career) will lose it, • and he who will lose his life ... will find it.” • Sometimes the system goes badly wrong. e.g., Iverson, Salton, etc. at Harvard • There is life after tenure denial.

  4. Miscellaneous Resources • Re faculty salaries, see http://www.cra.org/statistics, pages 12-13. • Re criteria for quality, see my document, “Criteria for University Faculty • Re promotion and tenure, see the UNC-CH Chancellor’s Advisory Committee document, “Presenting an Effective Promotion/Tenure Dossier”
