Faculty Development
Begun in the 1970s, the field of Faculty Development is relatively young and focuses on Teaching Development and Career Advancement of faculty. At FSU, this work is divided between two units. The Center for the Advancement of Teaching (CAT) focuses exclusively on advancing the teaching practice, course development, and curricula development of FSU faculty. The Office of Faculty Development and Advancement supports Career Advancement and Recognition for all levels of faculty.

As the Director of Faculty Development, I focus on Career Advancement and support efforts to recognize faculty achievements. I work individually with faculty to make five- and ten-year career plans, to apply for external awards and fellowships, and to develop cross-disciplinary research. I sustain faculty work, support work/life balance, and build faculty community by organizing Faculty Writing Retreats, hosting Accountability Groups, and leading recognition strategy workshops.
