Academic Job Market Boot Camp Fall 2026

Doctoral students and postdocs entering the academic job market today face fewer available positions and significantly more competition than in previous years. In this environment, a strong application package is essential to how you are evaluated by hiring committees. But many doctoral students and postdocs are uncertain about what these documents should include—and how to write them effectively.

This five-day virtual boot camp is designed to help you build and strengthen each component of your academic application package. Each session focuses on a specific document, giving you the knowledge and strategies to present yourself clearly and professionally as an educator and scholar.

Unable to attend a session live? Replays will be available—register in advance to receive access.

This boot camp is designed for doctoral students, Ph.D.s, and postdocs from all academic disciplines who are preparing to apply for faculty positions. Duke graduate students can attend this workshop series for free, including access to replays of events when available, through The Graduate School's subscription to Beyond the Professoriate. Advance registration is required.
