Office for Faculty Affairs

We work with faculty and administrators every day to provide information and advice on appointments, promotions, professional development opportunities, leave, retirement, and other aspects of academic life. We organize orientations and trainings and publish handbooks on a variety of subjects; with the FAS deans, we conduct data-driven and qualitative analyses, develop policies, and help launch initiatives to enhance faculty life. Our goal is to help the FAS build an outstanding faculty and to create an environment where these extraordinary scholars and teachers can do their best work.
