Apply now: Junior faculty development course

Sent on behalf of Kathy Griendling, PhD, Associate Dean for Faculty Affairs and Professional Development

The Emory University School of Medicine is pleased to again offer a five-month career development course designed especially for junior faculty. Featuring a diverse faculty selected from throughout the School of Medicine and Goizueta Business School, this course will present information necessary for success in an academic medical center using a variety of formats including didactic presentations, group and individual exercises, and case-based problem solving. Because space is limited in this course, we encourage early nominations. Please refer to the website for a detailed course curriculum.
