Scholars whose work relates to art, music, architecture, etc. often have experience with museum exhibitions, musical

performances, etc. Benjamin, as a graduate student studying the built environment, included exhibitions that he

contributed to, as well as professional architectural and curatorial experience, as they are relevant to his field.

Benjamin presents his research and teaching interests in one category. He could have chosen to use two categories:

RESEARCH INTERESTS, listing specific areas of his scholarly expertise, and TEACHING INTERESTS, with relevant

general topics, to show the breadth of teaching areas. Benjamin landed a tenure-track position at a research university. ,GHQWLI\LQJLQIRUPDWLRQKDVEHHQFKDQJHG
