Teaching at teaching-intensive institutions (1-day conference)
Many faculty enjoy rewarding careers at colleges and universities that primarily emphasize teaching, including liberal arts colleges, community colleges, and regional comprehensive universities. This free one-day regional conference being held in-person at Worcester State University brings together graduate students, postdocs, and faculty to discuss what it’s like to work at teaching intensive institutions and how to apply for these faculty positions. Graduate students and postdocs will engage with faculty and deans from a range of teaching-intensive institutions across the New England region through a series of talks, panel presentations, and networking opportunities. Information will be continually updated on the TTII conference website at https://www.umass.edu/graduate/professional-development/teaching-teaching-intensive-institutions. MIT CAPD, OGE, and OVPR are pleased to be sponsors of the Teaching at Teaching Intensive Institutions Conference.This CAPD event is open to MIT graduate students and postdocs and is free to attend. Registration must be completed in advance through the TTII Conference website. Registration typically opens in early September.
