Future Faculty Career Exploration Program

The Future Faculty Career Exploration Program is a rigorous four-day program designed for individuals to experience a “behind the scenes” glimpse into life as a faculty member here at RIT. Participants will have the opportunity to engage with RIT's administration, faculty, and students while on campus. The program offers additional opportunities to enhance interview skills, practice job-talk presentations, and explore the research, teaching, and service expectations of RIT Faculty members.

Campus Visits

We are traveling to universities across the country both in person and virtually to meet with university administrators graduate student groups at their campuses. During our visits, we discuss faculty opportunities at RIT and provide you with insight on creating a compelling faculty application and advice on making your transition from graduate student to assistant professor.
Contact us if you are interested in having us visit your campus
Pathways to RIT

A virtual “academic open house," the Pathways to RIT program is designed to help scholars and artists who will soon be on the job market better understand RIT and the Greater Rochester area. During these sessions, attendees will meet with the administration and faculty in our colleges. RIT hosts will lead discussions on different aspects of faculty life within their college. This is your chance to ask questions that will help you in learning more about faculty life, such as course offerings, research initiatives, student population, teaching loads and more.
