Nationally, more undergraduates are educated at community colleges, liberal arts colleges, and specialized BS and MS universities than at research universities. These faculty become leaders at their institutions, usually serve as advisers as well, and may engage in some research. Learn about what it’s like to teaching at a teaching-intensive university and ask questions of CIRTL alumni who are teaching at these institutions in this online panel event. Panelists will talk about how much teaching they do, opportunities for leadership and advancement, and more. This is the second event in our three-part series “Exploring Career Paths with CIRTL Alumni.”

Speakers

Dr. Caitlin Williams, Assistant Professor of Biology, Virginia Wesleyan University
Dr. Josh Brown, Assistant Professor of Psychology, Southern Utah University
Dr. Eunice Park, Assistant Professor of the Department of Public Health, Montclair State University
