Butler Center inviting book proposals for new Navigating Careers in Higher Education series
The Susan Bulkeley Butler Center for Leadership Excellence is launching a new book series titled Navigating Careers in Higher Education through Purdue University Press. Anyone in higher education from across the world can submit a book proposal.
Book proposals in this series will use an intersectional lens to examine and understand how faculty members and administrators navigate careers and their aspirations to succeed. Books may adopt a US or a global focus, and topics may include addressing sexism, homophobia, racism, and ethnocentrism; examining the role of higher education institutions; analyzing the effects of growing non-tenure track faculty; addressing the challenges of research agenda that may be perceived as controversial; maintaining a life-work balance; and entering leadership positions. Additional topics related to careers in higher education also are welcome.
Book proposals can be submitted as per these guidelines. For more information, email butlercenter@purdue.edu.
