[ES_JOBS_NET] UNVEIL Program Applications Open for Advanced Grad Students and Postdocs

[Alyssa Stansfield]

Passing on information about a program that I participated in last year and
was very helpful for me in securing an assistant professor position:


Dear Colleagues,



We are excited to invite applicants for our second cohort of a professional
development program at UMass Amherst: *UNVEIL: Revealing the hidden
curriculum of faculty job application, interviewing and negotiation to
contribute to diversifying scientific leadership.*



The main goal of this program is to increase diversity among faculty and
scientific leadership in the Natural Sciences, with a specific focus on
groups under-represented in their fields. The program provides training to
early career researchers to help them excel during the application and
faculty interview process by exposing admitted fellows to the same
components that they will experience during the faculty job process. The
program is open to postdoctoral fellows and finishing graduate students
residing in North America, with priority given to applicants planning to
pursue jobs in the 2024-2025 academic year (see more details on eligibility
at the link below). For this year’s cohort, participating departments are
Environmental Conservation, Biology, and Earth, Geographic and Climate
Sciences.



More details on programmatic activities, eligibility, focal sub-fields, and
the application can be accessed here: *https://forms.gle/SaGv3PyHhGpfL8ep8

The deadline for applications is *May 3rd, 2024*.



This program is sponsored by the National Science Foundation Divisions of
Biological Sciences and Geosciences, the Howard Hughes Medical Institute
Gilliam Program, the UMass Amherst Office of Equity & Inclusion and
Graduate School Office of Professional Development, and the departments of
Environmental Conservation, Biology, and Earth, Geographic and Climate
Sciences.
