Writing Your Cover Letter for the Academic Job Market

Get a sampler of academic professional development in this 8-part event series covering everything from the academic hiring process, to defining your teaching philosophy, to careers outside academia. Events meet online in Zoom throughout the spring term.

This event is an introduction to the academic cover letter. Through this presentation you will learn the basic structure of an academic cover letter, how to tailor it to your target institution and how to include the information that will make you a compelling candidate. This is the first event in CIRTL’s eight-part series “The Joyful Journey: Graduate Student and Postdoctoral Scholar Professional Development Series.”
