Timisoara, 18-24 June
ECIS 2022 - New Horizons in Digitally United Societies
Junior faculty consortium @ ECIS2022
We invite all IS Junior Faculty to participate at this year’s ECIS Junior Faculty Consortium in Timisoara, Romania on June 21st from 1pm to 5pm. The consortium consists of panels, discussions, and interactive sessions built around issues related to becoming a successful member of the professoriate and to advance your career. Each participant will have the opportunity to interact with a wide variety of both new and senior faculty and to share their experiences, thoughts, and concerns about developing a career in the academy. We will be spending time on some of the really challenging and sensitive issues that attendees have and need help with but were always afraid to ask.
We look forward to receiving your ECIS 2022 Junior Faculty Consortium applications!
