CLST Placement Workshop

Profs. Dhananjay Jagannathan (Philosophy, Columbia) & Sailakshmi Ramgopal (History, Columbia)

Schermerhorn 930

In this workshop, Professors Sailakshmi Ramgopal (History) and Dhananjay Jagannathan (Philosophy) will review sample cover letters by people who are currently, or were recently, on the academic job market in CLST-related fields, and discuss cover letter structure, customization of letters for different positions/institutions, and more. Snacks will be provided.

Building on this workshop, a second will follow in the Fall and act as a cover letter lab in which Profs. Ramgopal and Jagannathan will review letters by those students who will be on the market.

Please join us, even if you see yourself on the market a few years down the road!
