PGRs and ECRs workshop: 'Cracking the Academic Jobmarket: The US Version'

Professor Jenny Kaminer is a Next Generation Visiting Researcher from the University of California, Davis, and will be in conversation with Dr Connor Doak (Bristol).

This workshop is designed for postgraduate students and early-career researchers in the Arts & Humanities who are interested in applying for academic jobs or building an academic career in the USA. The USA is an academic powerhouse and many postgrads in the UK apply for jobs in American universities. While there are many commonalities between UK and US academic culture, there are also major differences. This workshop will help you navigate those differences, to prepare an application for a job at a US university, from the documents that you need to prepare to the campus visit and negotiating an offer.
