Workshop: Brief Description of “Negotiating Your Faculty Start-up Package”
This seminar will help you answer two of the most difficult questions any future faculty member faces:
1. WHAT can I ask for after I receive a faculty job offer?
What requests are reasonable for me to make during the negotiation process so that I can be sure to meet my personal needs and the needs of my future research program?
2. HOW do I ask for what I need?
What do I say, and when, so that I get what I need and yet maintain a good relationship with my future chair?
