How do you become a visiting professor?
478423
A "Visiting Instructor" or "Visiting Assistant Professor" is the special name for an instructor or professor who is hired only for a short period of time, usually from one to three years.  These positions are generally only desired by scholars who are ABD (haven't finished their dissertation yet), or are new Ph.D.s.  This is because visiting positions pay poorly, are only temporary, and are not tenure-track.  So the people who end up in a string of visiting positions are not in an enviable spot; rather, they are having a very hard time getting a permanent job with a decent salary and benefits.  \n\nI know some folks who had to take 2 or 3 visiting positions in a row before they found tenure-track positions, and it was very hard on them, both financially and in terms of job security.  They were terrified they wouldn't ever find a permanent position with some security.  And of course, other academics start to get suspicious of your ability to be a decent scholar if you just cannot find a tenure-track position.\n\nI hope this information helps.

The best thing to do would be to see if one of your professors knows any lawyers who he/she can get you in touch with. Connections are often very helpful in these sorts of situations.

YOu can have younger professors, but the amount of time to become one means that you are a bit older.\n\nWith the education you present, you might have a hard time getting back into grade school.

as a tour guide on my campus, there is nothing to be worry about. we love to tell you about our university and why you should come. i recommend you ask questions about the academic (class size, office hours with your professors, grading, places to studies) and social life (what is there to do around town or on campus, greek life, clubs, etc). Also ask about opportunity the univeristy offers like internships, tutoring, mentorship, grad school preperations, etc. If its possible, ask to see a dorm and try to have conversations with actualy students. Also do go to the student panel. When you are on the tour, dont be rude. respect the tour guide because they are taking time from thier busy schedule to take you around the campus.\nAlso if you have admissions questions try to talk to the admissions office b&#92;c most of the tour guides are not allow to answer them. hhhmm what else oh and take the pamphlets they offer as you're waiting for your tour.

I will try to answer in general, as I do not know your field or where you are studying, or even where you are trying to become a professor.  If you are just starting, you will need to get your classes completed and pass your qualifying exam as a first step.  Join the national academic associations for your field.  These will probably be the main source for locating open positions in your field.  While working on your degree, keep an eye out for promising research avenues with the opportnity to conduct and publish some research along the way.  Also try to get some teaching under your belt.  Basically, the schools will be looking at three things when they hire you:  Can you conduct research in your area of expertise, can you teach their students well, and can they get along with you as a colleague.  The weightings among these criteria will change from school to school.  Don't stress all this too much right now.  You will gain an understanding of all that is involved as you progress through the degree.  Best of luck.

If you are considering graduate school and would like to contact professors who do research in your area(s) of interest, there are a few rules you should follow:\n\n1.) Use proper spelling, capitalization, and punctuation.\n2.) Be courteous and professional (use proper titles, do not use email language, etc.)\n3.) Be concise and get to the point sooner rather than later.\n4.) Do NOT send multiple messages!  It's summer time, so many professors may be away from their offices.  Be patient.  Most application deadlines are from December to February, so you have plenty of time to get your questions answered.  \n\nTo start, ASK if you can ask questions.  This might sound redundant, but it's better to introduce yourself briefly and be polite than to bombard someone with questions.  You could go on and on asking questions and 'selling yourself' only to find out that the professor will be away on sabbatical the year you apply or that s/he isn't accepting new advisees at this time. \n\nYour initial email should (a) introduce yourself, (b) briefly (i.e. a couple of sentences) introduce your research interests, (c) indicate that your interests match those of the professor, and (d) ask if they would be willing to answer more specific questions.  I would keep it to one paragraph.  Thank them in advance for their time, and see what happens.\n\nAs for getting recommended for scholarships, most grad programs consider you for funding automatically when you apply, and research assistantships will have to be found after you're accepted.  Worry about getting a professor's interest enough to admit you before worrying about him or her helping you get funded.\n\nGood luck!

Before you choose a faculty in any universities, ask yourself first. What is your interest and what the capability (intelegently and financially) you have. Those points are playing very important roles in deciding which faculties you are going to enter. You can't put your question here because everbody has their own interest and their own capability. \n\nIf you ask which faculties that can make you a millionaire after you are graduated? I will answer NONE. Because basically there is no schools teaching you how to make money in reality.

First, prepare all necessary documents that may be required - CV, transcript, certification to teach (required by some), certification in using the english language (required by some).\n\nSecond, check embassies and university websites regarding entry to the country and job vacancies. (Check your documents and what you have against their specific requirements and try to comply).\n\nThird, formal application.

The normal faculty rankings in the US are:\nprofessor (tenured)\nassociate professor (tenured)\nassistant professor (tenure-track)\ninstructor\nlecturer\n\nMost lecturers are nearly finished with their Ph.D.s, or are what is called "ABD" (all but dissertation).  Sometimes, however, lecturers already have their Ph.D.s, and have just not found a tenure-track job yet.   Others are Ph.D.s who are working as adjuncts, and choose, often for personal or geographical reasons, not to look for a tenure-track job. \nStill others just have Master's degrees. \n\n(It depends on the field, but some disciplines hire folks with just a Master's degree to fill short-term, underpaid lecturer positions.  The market is glutted with ABDs and new Ph.D.s right now, however, so most lecturer positions go to folks who are at least ABD.)\n\nThere is some variation, however, according to field of specialization.  For example, faculty members in the visual and performing arts often do not have Ph.D.s, but have M.F.A.s (Master of Fine Arts).  This is because in the arts, Master's degrees are often considered the terminal degree.  (Ph.D.s involve research, and the in many instances, the arts focus on performance.)\n\nSo, how do you become a lecturer?  When you are close to finishing your Ph.D., apply for a lecturer position.\n\nI hope this helped.
