Office of Faculty Development

The Office of Faculty Development is charged with enhancing the leadership capabilities of the medical faculty through professional development.

The goal of the office is to link medical faculty to campus-wide opportunities and to create new opportunities, unique and responsive to the interests of the medical faculty. The program aims to support faculty in attaining excellence in the academic competency of their choice.

To support you, we:

  • provide knowledge and skill-building seminars and workshops,
  • organize departmental mentorship and leadership programs
  • promote professional development courses offered through other programs, and
  • create web-based information resources to support faculty development.

The office also assist new faculty in obtaining important information when coming on board as a new faculty member.
