Faculty Member ISO Interdisciplinary Collaborators: How to Find the Right Match
Spring 2019
More Details
Tired of lonely hours scrolling through search engines in your discipline, only to keep seeing the same names and articles over and over? Already published in the major journals in your field, and looking for some fresh perspective? Have questions about what it might be like to cross disciplinary boundaries, but don't know how to find the right match? Interested in interdisciplinary teaching partnerships? Join us for a speed-dating structured workshop for interdisciplinary research and teaching collaborators. Frequent collaborators Margaret Brooker and Kate Pantelides will frame the discussion by sharing their experiences working across disciplinary boundaries, highlighting the rewards and potential challenges. Then, workshop participants will be invited to meet each other, share their research and teaching strengths, and consider opportunities for collaboration.

If you're looking for some just-in-time training or want to dig a little deeper into a specific topic of interest, MTSU subscribes to both Teaching Professor ("reflects the changing needs of today's college faculty and the students they teach") and Academic Leader ("reflects the evolving needs of academic deans, department chairs and heads, program directors, and others with leadership responsibilities") online publications. If attempting to access either publication off-campus, you'll be asked to enter your MTSU credentials.
If you have an idea for a potential future workshop, please feel free to send your suggestions to Dr. Lando Carter.
