            <big> When applying for an academic position, you will be
              required to produce a teaching and/or research statement.
              Writing a poor statement can hurt your chances of being
              considered for a position, but taking the time to write
              them well can set you apart from other candidates.&nbsp;Drs.
              Bell and&nbsp;Halstead will analyze the characteristics of
              teaching and research statements, discuss their components
              and review examples - so that you will be able to write
              thoughtful, creative statements that have impact. </big>
