In this online panel, we’ll hear from 3 CIRTL alumni who now work as teaching professors at research universities around the United States. Faculty members who primarily teach, rather than do research, have become increasingly important for delivering courses at research universities. Alumni will share what their jobs are like, how they became interested in teaching, how they ended up at research institutions and how they fit within their departments, and what growth and progression can look like in these types of career paths. These alumni teach in computer science and engineering, chemistry and biochemistry, and English, at UC San Diego, the University of Delaware, and the University of Wyoming.

This is the first event in our three-part series “Exploring Career Paths with CIRTL Alumni.”

Event Schedule

This online event meets on Monday, November 3rd at 9-10pm Gulf / 12-1pm Eastern / 11am-12pm Central / 10-11am Arizona / 9-10am Pacific. This is the first event in our three-part series “Exploring Career Paths with CIRTL Alumni.”

About CIRTL Programming

CIRTL Network programming is designed to develop future faculty committed to implementing and advancing evidence-based teaching practices to create undergraduate educational experiences that are accessible to all learners. Participants can explore our programming in any order, and to whatever extent supports your own teaching development needs and interests. To help participants understand what they can expect across all our programming, all CIRTL programming aligns with four broad learning goals; within those goals, programming might provide participants with an introductory, intermediate, or advanced learning experience.

This course supports the following CIRTL learning goals at an introductory level:

• Goal 4: Prepare for an impactful career. See more Goal 4 programming.
