DSI’s financial commitment depends on available resources and Institute priorities. A successfully recruited candidate will be expected to be an active participant in the Institute.
Interview: If you would like help interviewing a candidate during an on-campus visit, please contact Jeannette M. Wing (wing@columbia.edu) and her executive assistant will set up a time for her to connect with the candidate. Please include the candidate’s application package (c.v., letters, research and teaching statements, etc.). We will gladly meet with candidates on a rolling basis throughout the academic year depending on your recruitment timeline; early notice is strongly encouraged. We can also arrange for the candidate to speak with other DSI faculty members.
Offer: After the department or school decides to make an offer, and you would like DSI funds to help with start-up costs, the dean/department chair and the Institute will negotiate the terms of the amount and expectations of engagement with the DSI on a case-by-case basis. Department chairs are expected to get approval from their respective dean to receive DSI funds.
