Programs and Opportunities for Early Career Mathematics Education Scholars
Early career mathematics education scholars face several challenges as they navigate academia. Some of these challenges relate to disparities in access to information and encouragement to apply to certain opportunities. In this paper, a diverse group of early career mathematics education scholars presents programs that have supported their work. The purpose of the paper is to serve as a repository of some of these programs for advisors, mentors, and scholars. Based on their experience securing these opportunities, the authors also offer advice and encouragement for future applicants. Ultimately, the paper contributes to demystifying academia and facilitating the search for opportunities for those joining the field.
