Moving FORWARD in SPACE Workshop for Early Career Planetary Faculty

Short Description:

We are pleased to announce the Moving FORWARD in Space Workshop, to be held in the Grogan's Mill Room at The Woodlands Waterway Marriott Hotel on Sunday March 17, 2013
A workshop geared toward providing young female scientists with information and skills necessary to attain a tenured professorship in the planetary sciences. Meeting activities will focus on developing networking connections, techniques for more successful writing, acquiring grant funding, sharing of classroom ideas and materials, maintaining work-life balance, and challenges for dual career couples. Attendance will be limited. Although this conference is aimed specifically at female scientists, we encourage all underrepresented minorities in the planetary sciences to apply, as well as dual-career couples. Please contact us at planetary@temple.edu if you have any questions.
