[Jeffery Joe Hemsley]

Time is running out for the early registration price for AoIR!

When you register, please consider joining us for the AoIR Early Career Scholars Workshop.

We are building a global community of junior scholars within AoIR - join us at AoIR 2017 - Tartu!!

When: October 18th, AoIR 2017 preconference afternoon session

Audience: This workshop is geared toward early career scholars who have their terminal degree and are working toward establishing themselves in a scholarly career. We have worked to create a workshop that is reflective of AoIR's international membership and the different type of academic and research institutions represented. (Please note: Students should apply to the Doctoral Colloquium).

Goals: 1) Provide a space for the next generation of AoIR scholars to start building strong ties with each other, more established researchers, and the AoIR community. 2) To promote understanding of the breadth of academic work, including our shared experiences and differences. 3) Connect with established academics to learn strategies for forwarding our careers. 4) Gain insight into how to formulate similar workshops in future years that support the need for mentoring early scholars in the AoIR community.

Format: We will have a mix of interactive sessions involving early career scholars and established academics. To that end, we are asking participants to tell us what they want to talk about.

Registration: Participants must register through the official AoIR 2017 conference. We also are asking participants to email 1 to 3 questions that they would like addressed by a panel of established scholars to Jeff Hemsley (jjhemsle at syr.edu<mailto:jjhemsle at syr.edu>) AND Andrea L. Guzman (alguzman at niu.edu<mailto:alguzman at niu.edu>).
