CIC Doctoral Directory
The Committee on Institutional Cooperation invites PhD candidates and degree recipients to enroll in the CIC Doctoral Directory as an alum of one of the CIC member universities.  CIC universities grant twenty percent of the doctoral degrees earned nationally.  CIC is committed to increasing the diversity of faculties and to promoting career opportunities for doctoral alumni.  CIC has launched the new CIC Doctoral Directory to increase the visibility of this talented and diverse pool.  The CIC Doctoral Directory will be promoted among hiring committees at CIC member universities, and starting in May 2009, the it will be freely available from the CIC website.

The CIC Doctoral Directory will facilitate networking and peer mentoring among alumni from CIC universities.  It gives alumni an opportunity to identify and connect with fellow alumni who share similar interests. When you enroll, you will have the option to join a listserv dedicated to minority doctoral recipients so that you will be updated on CIC activities, job and post-doctoral announcements and other professional development opportunities.

If you would like to enroll in the CIC Doctoral Directory, please complete the short form the CIC website: http://www.cic.net/DoctoralDirectory.
