• Dual Career Considerations in Faculty Recruitment
  The UM STRIDE program has produced a handbook for faculty recruitment (see http://www.umich.edu/~advproj/downloads.html). Section II of the handbook includes a set of dual career considerations. STRIDE is part of the ADVANCE Program, which began as a five-year, NSF-funded project promoting institutional transformation with respect to women faculty in science and engineering fields. With the University’s commitment to continue funding through June 2011, the program is gradually expanding to promote other kinds of diversity among faculty and students in all fields.
