Designed for new college and university faculty in the mathematical sciences, Section NExT (New Experiences in Teaching) is a professional development program that addresses the full range of faculty responsibilities including teaching, scholarly activities, and service.
The goals for the North Central Section NExT are:
North Central Section NExT fellows participate in activities at the fall and spring meetings of the North Central Section of the MAA. The upcoming Section NExT meeting schedule is listed below.
Each year, applications will be solicited for new MAA-NCS Section NExT fellows to serve for a two year term. We will accept applications from faculty who are within the first four years of beginning full-time employment with teaching responsibilities at the college or university level. The application consists of a short personal statement and a letter of support from the department chair, guaranteeing financial support for transportation, meals, and lodging at the fall and spring meetings of the North Central Section.
A Section NExT fellow will attend meetings of the North Central Section of the MAA. At each meeting there will be special activities for the Section NExT fellows.
The Section will provide financial support for the evening dinner at the fall and spring NExT meetings and pay for registration for NExT fellows at the fall and spring MAA-NCS meetings.
National NExT fellows within the North Central Section in their first fours years of teaching are automatically Section NExT fellows and are encouraged to participate in Section NExT activities!
Please address questions to either of the organizers of the North Central Section NExT Program.
