SMS San Francisco Workshop: Your Tenure Package: How Do Letter Writers Read and Evaluate It?
Ends on
When business schools evaluate a junior professor for tenure, the school typically seeks letters from several prominent individuals in the junior scholar’s area of research. This half-day workshop is intended to help assistant professors and post-doctoral candidates understand and prepare for the tenure letter process.
The first half of the workshop will feature presentations by prominent senior faculty who have written tenure letters or have gone through the tenure process multiple times. They will describe the letter-writing process, explain how they evaluate a tenure case, and provide advice for junior scholars.
The second half of the workshop will feature small round-table discussions where junior scholars will describe their intended research program and receive feedback and advice from the senior scholars.
