Becoming a University professor is one potential career option for PhD students after graduation. But how easy is to obtain such positions? What are the main duties of a faculty member in North American Universities and how different are those in Iranian schools? What are the most important evaluating parameters? What are the appropriate time and approach to apply for faculty positions? Financially considering and compared to industrial jobs, how profitable are such careers?
To find the answers to these questions, join us on the very first scientific seminar by the new ISAUA committee. Within this 1.5 hours panel, three of Iranian engineering faculty members at the University of Alberta will discuss all the relevant topics and answer your questions. So you can send us your questions via the link provided below no later than 4th of April to be categorized and answered by our invited speakers. There would also be sometimes at the end specified for questions and answers.
Do you think you can afford a home in town? Do you know when to buy, where to buy, and what to buy? Are you aware of the common mistakes most home buyers (specifically first-time buyers) make? Do you know the mortgage rules play out in Alberta? Do you know how to negotiate the best price? If you are seeking the answers for these questions, please join us on Friday, June 27th, on a seminar organized by ISAUA and presented by Iranian Real Estate Agent Mrs. Nooran Ostadeian. She will focus on residential real estate in Edmonton. There will be a guest speaker, Mrs. Afshar of Investors Group, who will discuss the mortgage and financing issues.
