Applications Invited for the Nineteenth Cohort of Project NExT Fellows

Project NExT (New Experiences in Teaching) is a professional development program for new and recent Ph.D.s in the mathematical sciences (including pure and applied mathematics, statistics, operations research, and mathematics education). It addresses all aspects of an academic career: improving the teaching and learning of mathematics, engaging in research and scholarship, and participating in professional activities. It also provides the participants with a network of peers and mentors.

In 2012, about eighty faculty members will be selected to participate in a workshop preceding the MAA 2012 summer meeting, in activities during the summer MAA MathFests in 2012 and 2013, at the Joint Mathematics Meetings in January 2013, and in an electronic discussion network. Faculty for whom the 2012-2013 academic year will be the first or second year of full-time teaching (post-Ph.D.) at the college or university level are invited to apply to become Project NExT Fellows.

Applications for the 2012-2013 Fellowship year are due April 13, 2012. For more information, see the Project NExT website, http://archives.math.utk.edu/projnext/, or contact Aparna Higgins, Project NExT Director, at Aparna.Higgins@notes.udayton.edu.

A list of Project NExT sponsors, further information about Project NExT, as well as links to application instructions and the online application form, can be found on the Project NExT website: http://archives.math.utk.edu/projnext/. Project NExT is a program of the MAA.
