The University of Chicago offers a range of programs and services designed to support you in your development as a teaching scholar. By familiarizing yourself with the resources outlined in this site, you will be taking an important first step in preparing yourself for a successful career.

Three key offices at the university provide some of the essential tools for your professional development:

Office of Graduate Affairs
The Center for Teaching and Learning
Career Advising and Planning Services

The professionals in these offices encourage you to consider both the range of programs and services available to you during your graduate training.

Collectively, the offices have produced Resources for Your Academic Career, a guide to services for graduate students in the Divisions and the Divinity School. This booklet provides listings of essential services and resources as well as a professional development timeline, which outlines phases of Ph.D. programs at the University of Chicago.
