OGPS Faculty Corner Series Fall 2024

OGPS Career & Professional Development - Faculty Corner

This is a monthly in-person event designed to provide insights, advice, and knowledge related to your professional development as an emerging academic. Each session will feature a faculty member from UMMS discussing topics pertinent to starting an academic career (focusing on pursuing a tenure-track position in the US). You will get to hear from faculty about their career trajectories and how they navigated their transition from trainee to faculty member. You will also have an opportunity to network with the faculty member as well as other trainees.

Aims and Objectives:

  1. Provide a place and time where you can learn from faculty experiences and knowledge as you prepare to enter the academic job market.
  2. Address and discuss pertinent issues and topics relevant to the professional development of trainees in the biomedical and life sciences.
  3. Foster networking and community-building opportunities between faculty and yourself.
  4. Bring your questions - leave with answers and an action plan!

We look forward to assisting you in your career and professional development journey!
