Faculty search procedures workshops announced
August 11, 2014
ADVANCE-Purdue is offering two sessions of the "ADVANCE/OIE Search Committee Workshop on Faculty Hiring" this fall.
The workshop, which is open to all faculty and required for serving on a search committee, will be held 8:15 a.m.-noon Sept. 30 in Stewart Center, Room 302, and 8:15 a.m.-noon Oct. 15 in Purdue Memorial Union, West Faculty Lounge. A light breakfast will be served.
The workshop provides an interactive opportunity to explore and discuss search strategies and challenges. It is research-based and includes important information on unintentional bias. The workshop is conducted in a roundtable format that offers opportunity for an in-depth discussion of faculty search best practices with other faculty members across campus, including how to build a robust and diverse candidate pool.
Those faculty planning to attend can register for one of the two workshops at https://purdue.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_d6ja4Dlrugt9ZiZ. Those interested in attending are encouraged to register as soon as possible due to the high demand for these workshops.
