WPI's STEM Faculty Launch is a premier workshop for graduate students and postdoctoral researchers seeking tenure-track positions in the STEM fields. Now in its fifth year, STEM Faculty Launch is open to candidates nationwide. Women and traditionally unrepresented minority candidates are especially encouraged to apply.

Participants will spend two days on the campus of WPI, where they will attend a variety of interactive sessions, receive career advice and feedback from expert faculty, and gain exposure to project-based learning, a hallmark of a WPI education.

Among the topics covered:

• Negotiating for a tenure-track position or other faculty position • Preparing your research and teaching statements, using evidence-based teaching practice • Preparing for the on-campus interview • Developing an Individual Development Plan (IDP) for your professional goals

All invited participants receive funding to cover travel expenses to and from WPI, as well as lodging and meals during the workshop.  The Foisie Business School will be sponsoring Management Information Systems or Operations and Industrial Engineering PhD candidates who intend to graduate during AY19/20, recent doctoral program graduates, and/or post-docs.
