了找工作,似乎没有多少我感兴趣的东西。现在又LAPSE了,要RENEW要交两年钱,加起
来400多了,这都得自掏腰包。要是加入4个SOCIETY,每年会费就是700多了,
可是在和一个faculty talk时,他们问我打算在society里担任什么leader role,好像
他们还挺看重这些的。
请问各位,这些society在career发展中能有多大的意义?另外就是可以用grant或者
startup来pay这些dues吗?
谢谢 |

it is hard to say how important it is. it depends on your credential.
for seniors, re-connect, exchange rumors, and play politics.
2. yes.

you cannot pay membership fee with grant/startup fund.

M*****n 发帖数: 16729 | 4 NIH fund can not be used for membership fees, but the DAF money can, so you
don't have to pay out of your pocket, if you have DAF money.
another benefit is that you can apply for society grants (mostly for career developmental grant or fellowship for your mentees)if you are a member.
this is probably the only reason why I want to join a professional society. |

我才发现系里给tenure track一年5k的fund,可以专门用来报销membership和请客吃饭。
以前老板一直说membership只能自己掏腰包,难道被他骗了?

M*****n 发帖数: 16729 | 6 yes. that's probably DAF money. Another thing is that department will give some money for journal subscription etc. but this is differently from DAF. I was told that NIH grants ca not be used for office supplies, so the office supplies needs to purchased with DAF.
if you get more grants, you will get more DAF money. BTW, I think hosting can be paid with grants.
饭。
