Chart a course, make adjustments, and reach your goal: this is the essence of managing your career in academia. The Compass Program is designed to guide you through the planning process so you can set realistic goals and milestones. We will teach you how to avoid pitfalls that can derail a promising career, and we will give you insights and share the secrets of insiders who have thrived within the culture of higher education. Everyone knows that you "publish or perish," but do you also understand the three basic strategies for grantsmanship and can you identify the seven most common ways that junior faculty fail in their careers?
After you register for the Compass Program, you will be invited to submit your CV and career plan for review, so a Compass instructor can plan one-on-one feedback with you during the program.
