Supporting PhD and postdoctoral scholars in building pathways to academic careers as tenure-track faculty.

The **Future Faculty Fellows (FFF) program** in Rice’s George R. Brown School of Engineering and Computing is designed to help PhD students and postdocs explore the tenure track academic career path, compete successfully for tenure track faculty positions, and launch their careers.

The program is divided into three levels, corresponding with readiness to apply for tenure track faculty positions, including: engagement, preparation, and application. Learn more [about the program](https://engineering.rice.edu/academics/graduate-programs/future-faculty-fellows/about-program).
