Invitation: Washington State University Summer Doctoral Fellows Program 

(Note we are extending the deadline for applications to March 25)

 

Washington State University invites applications from and nominations
for doctoral candidates who are nearing completion of their graduate
degrees and preparing for careers in higher education to attend a six
week Summer Doctoral Fellows Program (June 18 to July 27).  Applications
will be considered in the following colleges: Agricultural, Human and
Natural Resource Sciences; Business; Education; Engineering and
Architecture; Liberal Arts; Nursing; Pharmacy; Sciences; and Veterinary
Medicine. A primary goal of the SDF program is to emphasize the
importance of mentoring doctoral candidates from underrepresented groups
for future careers in teaching, research, and service at the university
level


The purpose of the program is to provide selected doctoral students with
the opportunity to work closely with faculty mentors at Washington State
University in preparing for academic careers as future faculty members.
During the program, Fellows will:

*       Work on completing dissertations

*       Actively engage in seminars on the changing roles and
expectations of faculty, the future of the professoriate, the changing
nature of higher education, and issues facing faculty of color and women
in higher education

*       Design individualized programs for enhancing their ability to
teach, conduct research, and other scholarship

Interested candidates should submit a curriculum vita, graduate school
transcript, three letters of recommendation, and a 3-5 page career goals
and research interest statement to the following:
