On the Academic Job Market: Writing Diversity Statements for Academic Jobs
Tuesday, September 20, 2022 @ 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm
Location: Online
In this workshop, you will learn about what’s expected in diversity statements for academic job applications. We will talk about how to write a diversity statement that demonstrates to search committees how your teaching, research, and service will enhance diversity and equity efforts on their campus. We’ll discuss what a diversity statement is, study samples from across disciplines to identify effective strategies, and begin crafting rough drafts.
This workshop is offered in collaboration with the Writing Center, and is part of a series designed specifically for graduate students and postdocs preparing for the academic job search.
