Dear Aprille Ericsson-Jackson,
Please take a moment to read about the rewarding opportunity to participate in
the Rochester Institute of Technology's Future Faculty Career Exploration
Program. If you are interested and meet the selection criteria we ask that you
complete the online application form and provide the requested documents.
The Future Faculty Career Exploration Program is an all-expense-paid visit to
RIT and Rochester, NY from September 28 through October 2, 2011. RIT's 9th
annual Future Faculty Career Exploration Program (FFCEP) is one of a series of
recruitment strategies designed to fuel the future pipeline of diverse faculty.
This innovative program furthers RIT's diversity efforts by bringing students
nearing the end of their post doctoral, doctoral or MFA studies to Rochester to
receive the "RIT treatment." We also welcome applications from those that have
completed their degrees and junior faculty.
The FFCEP is a unique and exciting opportunity to explore potential career
choices through exploratory interviews; research presentations; meetings with
deans, department heads, and RIT's President; as well as participate in campus
and community tours. The program allows participants to discuss their academic
work and career interests with RIT deans and faculty as well as learning of
RIT's teaching and research agendas and vision. Previous years' FFCEP programs
have resulted in thirteen faculty hires and a summer teaching experience.
Selection Criteria
* An individual with the ability to contribute in meaningful ways to the
university's continuing commitment to cultural diversity, pluralism, and
individual differences.
We are especially interested in applications from people of color who are
underrepresented and underserved in teaching professions

Doctoral assignment
* Desire academic teaching career at an exceptional institution
* Receiving degrees in Business, Liberal Arts, Science, Engineering, Applied

2011
