= Navigating the Academic Job Search: A Workshop for Graduate Students, Post-doctoral Researchers, and Practitioners = //A Service of the AEESP Student Services Committee//

The AEESP Student Services Committee is sponsoring the 2011 Navigating the Academic Job Search Workshop to be held July 2011 concurrent with the AEESP Biannual conference (Tampa, FL). A similar workshop in 2009 was a smashing success and heavily attended by students and postdoctoral researchers seeking faculty appointments. Past participants received advice from New Faculty Hires, Department Chairs, and seasoned Professors regarding their specific faculty application materials, the search process, as well as job search, interview, negotiation procedures and timelines. The 2011 workshop will provide participants many of the same benefits and more! Individuals seeking a faculty appointment in an Environmental Engineering or Science Department will greatly benefit from attending this event.
