Starting Your Career in Academic Psychology (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781433826382)

This book provides a systematic guide for jump-starting a career in academic psychology--from applying and interviewing for academic positions, to settling in at a new job, to maximizing success during the pre-tenure years. The chapters cover all key skills in which new faculty must become proficient: teaching, conducting and funding faculty-level research, serving the department and field, and "softer" activities such as networking and navigating university politics. Given the demands and competition in the field, this guide is an essential roadmap for new faculty.
