The Å·ÖÞ±ÍøͶ_Å·ÖÞ±ÍâΧapp-Ͷע¹ÙÍø Center for Faculty Enrichment (CFE) supports the professional development of Å·ÖÞ±ÍøͶ_Å·ÖÞ±ÍâΧapp-Ͷע¹ÙÍø faculty of all types, ranks and career stages.
The center strives to provide:
? A place to locate and explore professional development resources

? Coordination and promotion of faculty development opportunities
? Opportunities for faculty from different disciplines, as well as administrative staff, to come together and share ideas
? A comprehensive orientation and ongoing programming for new faculty

Evolving from the Å·ÖÞ±ÍøͶ_Å·ÖÞ±ÍâΧapp-Ͷע¹ÙÍø Center for Teaching and Learning, the CFE is especially committed to enriching faculty work that advances our common mission of teaching and learning through a wide range of programming and resources.
The center strives to:
? Emphasize high-impact practices for effective undergraduate teaching and deep student learning, based on relevant scholarship and best practices
? Offer opportunities for personal and small group consultations to observe and provide feedback on teaching
? Make available resources and campus programming for continuing pedagogical development.
The center is also committed to faculty enrichment through professional development in career priorities beyond teaching and learning, such as:
? Scholarship: developing and managing projects, academic writing, grant applications, etc.
? Service and leadership: identifying and pursuing relevant service opportunities, developing skill sets for group collaboration, committee and departmental leadership, and administrative work, etc.
? Productivity: locating and using tools and best practices for professional efficiency and work/life balance.
