- No one else but you is going to take responsibility…for your academic career.…You no longer have a dissertation community to answer to…or to guide you.…You are on your own in terms of the road to career success.…As with other endeavors, plan career milestones…and events and work towards those milestones…on a regular basis.…It is a good idea to sit down once or twice a year…and plan your career moves for the next year,…two years, and even five years.…Do you want to remain a faculty member…or do you want to move into Administration.…
Do you want to write grants or do you want to…do more external consulting work?…Do you want to publish in the most prestigious…journal in your field or win…multiple teaching awards or both?…For many academics, tenure and promotion…are the two big goals.…At most Universities, you're evaluated…for tenure and promotion based on three items:…Research, Teaching, and Service.…Soon, after landing a position at a college or University,…determine which is most valuable.…Once you do, maximize your effort in that area…
