Early Career

Early Career Faculty

In the early career stage, many faculty are still developing their unique scholarly, creative, and pedagogical voices and building their profiles within and beyond their disciplines. The Office of Faculty Development provides a range of resources and programming designed to enable the flourishing of our early-career faculty community.

We seek to grow faculty belonging through our cura personalis-inspired approach to career development by offering skills-building workshops and community events, hosting faculty cohorts and individual mentorship opportunities, curating teaching resources in partnership with the Center for Teaching Excellence, and providing practical guides for completing administrative and professional career processes.
