This workshop is designed specifically for graduate students and post- 
doctoral fellows who are interested in pursuing academic careers.  
Faculty members and administrators will provide guidance and  
information that will help participants to be stronger candidates for  
academic positions and to succeed in academic jobs. Session topics  
focus on becoming both a successful teacher and researcher.

Application must be made on-line by March 17. An important part of  
each application is a statement of endorsement from a faculty member.

Each applicant must arrange for a faculty member to provide an  
endorsement, which is also due by March 17.  The faculty member will  
provide a statement regarding the potential of the applicant to  
benefit from and contribute to the workshop. It is the responsibility  
of the applicant to make sure that the letter of endorsement is  
submitted by the deadline.  There is a link to the endorsement form  
on the navigation menu on the workshop website.
