Faculty search committee workshops announced

ADVANCE Purdue is offering two sessions of the "ADVANCE/OVPEC Faculty Search Committee Workshop" this fall.

The workshop is open to all faculty and required for serving on a search committee. The sessions will be held Sept. 14 and Oct. 14, both from 8:15 a.m. to noon and both in the Hall for Discovery and Learning Research, Room 131. 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.
