1.4 WHO IS THE FACULTY DEVELOPMENT TEAM?
The Office of Faculty Development
Can you imagine what would happen if all faculty at CSUN loved their jobs? In Faculty Development, we are motivated to create space and opportunities where all faculty can fall in love with their work and at the same time, serve our students. To better understand our office, check out our mission statement:
Faculty Development provides relevant and thought-provoking programming to support all faculty in their teaching, scholarship, service, and leadership journeys. Our programming and partnerships are informed by equity-mindedness, technology-enriched best practices, and data-informed inquiry. We seek a supportive culture of shared power that attunes with the well-being and success of both faculty and students.
It is an exciting time for our office, and we encourage you to read our monthly newsletter where we make important announcements and invite you to our programs, some of which include funding and grants. Check out our the most current newsletter, which highlights our upcoming programming.
In general, there are numerous pathways in which we hope to engage with you, including:
FacDev Commons
Located on the Garden Level of University Library (UL) in Room UL 3, FacDev Commons is an innovative space serving CSUN faculty. Experiences in FacDev Commons are aligned with FacDev’s mission to support faculty in their teaching, scholarship, service and leadership journeys. In addition to being a site for select FacDev programming events, departments can reserve the space for meetings and retreats, and faculty members can use the space during FacDev Lounge Hours to meet with colleagues or simply rest and relax.
Learn more at the FacDev Commons website.
