Faculty Fellows

The faculty fellows program was established in 2013. Faculty fellows for teaching/learning work with collegewide and campus-based colleagues to enhance teaching and learning. Faculty fellows:

• Create, implement and revise strategies to support strategic learning initiatives.
• Create, implement and revise campus-based opportunities to support the development of course and curricular experiences, in all modalities, to improve student learning.
