Panel: Establishing and Thriving in an Academic Career

Description

In this panel, we will discuss academic life and share advice and experience around navigating the complexities of an academic career. These are important for the whole community to reflect more broadly and are particularly inspirational for early career researchers and students. The panelists include a broad spectrum of academics, which includes researchers in the US, Canada, and Europe, from small private schools to larger public institutions, and both pre-and post-tenure. The panel will discuss common challenges in being an academic including their own experiences in handling these challenges. Topics will include managing the amount of freedom often afforded by a faculty position, pushing back against the eternal pursuit of ”work-life balance”, particularly for women, navigating interdisciplinary collaborations, and considerations beyond CS rankings when choosing an academic home.
