147 Practical Tips for Emerging Scholars: From Publishing to Time Management, Grant Seeking, and Beyond

This book addresses a compelling question for all of us: How can faculty members succeed in developing scholarly careers? The authors organize the 147 tips by topic category: “Taking Control of Your Career as a Scholar”; “Building a Research Agenda”; “General Writing Tips”; “Developing and Writing Your Literature Review”; “Presenting at Conferences”; “Publishing in Refereed Journals”; “Writing Grants, Writing Academic Books, Ethics, and Responsibility”; “Technology for Writing and Teaching”; and “Passing It On: Collaborating and Mentoring.”

Please join Dr. Han-fen Hu for a group discussion that focuses on sharing your own experiences in effectively managing the competing demands of scholarly life. To obtain the Zoom link, please register. Sessions are on March 3 and April 7.

Note: You may acquire the book yourselves from a library or bookstore, or upon request, a print copy will be sent to your campus address only. Email facultycenter@unlv.edu by no later than January 31, 2021, if you would like a book ordered for you.
