RIT Future Faculty Career Exploration Program
The Future Faculty Career Exploration Program is a rigorous four-day program designed for historically underrepresented scholars of color to experience a “behind the scenes” glimpse into life as a faculty member here at RIT. Participants will have the opportunity to engage with RIT’s diverse administration, faculty, and students while on campus. The program offers additional opportunities to enhance interview skills, practice job-talk presentations, and explore the research, teaching, and service expectations of RIT Faculty members.
Program Dates: September 21 – 24, 2022
If chosen to participate, RIT will cover your transportation, lodging, and meals for the duration of the program.
