Developing a Research Statement
Event Description
This workshop is focused on the development of a first-class research
statement, an essential ingredient in the faculty hiring process at
top-ranked colleges and universities, particularly those with a
research emphasis. Topics to be discussed in the workshop will include
the definition of a research statement and its principal components: a
clear statement of the problem or problem set being addressed, a
summary of the state of the art, the articulation of research
methodologies and approaches, a summary of progress to date, a
statement of the research's impact on the state of the art to date,
proposed research initiatives, the end goals of the effort, and the
potential for incorporating this research in the classroom setting. In
some cases, it may be desirable as well to describe the new facilities
that would be either needed or developed to facilitate the research.
