| MWDD is a registry which maintains up-to-date information on employment candidates who have recently received, or are soon to receive, a Doctoral or Master's degree in their respective field from one of approximately two hundred major research universities in the United States. The current edition of the Directory lists approximately 4,500 Black, Hispanic, American Indian, Asian American, and women students in nearly 80 fields in the sciences, engineering, the social sciences and the humanities. We maintain essential decision-making criteria and current contact information for each candidate, such as name, address, ethnicity and citizenship, major and areas of specialization, date of completion, dissertation title, and current employment/post-doctoral appointment. The information for the Directory is collected over late spring and summer to ensure accurate mailing addresses. Only those students from the previous year's Directory who updated their listing for the new edition are included. As in past years, the Directory is available in two versions: either as a complete two vlume set or as 60 separately available Departmental Rosters. Mailing labels, containing names and addresses of listed students, are available either as a complete set (4500 labels) or individually by department. The 2008-9 Directory will be available October 1st, 2008. We hope you will find this new edition even more useful in realizing an enlarged pool of qualified minority and women candidates for your faculty and/or professional positions. | |||
