Future Professoriate Program(FPP)
Primary Faculty Liaisons
Each department involved in the Future Professoriate Program has a main contact person -- the Primary Faculty Liaison -- providing the primary link between the Graduate School and their department. They have the following duties and responsibilities:
- serve as a faculty teaching mentor
- recruit and appoint faculty teaching mentors and teaching associates in their department. Coordinate the mentor/associate partnerships and administer Future Professoriate grants. Inform their teaching associates of the program's requirements and procedures
- administer the Future Professoriate Grants. If the department elects the option of pooling the grants, send the Program director an annual account of their disbursement.
- arrange for appropriate independent teaching assignments for their teaching associates
- initiate and support a professional development program for their teaching associates
- develop effective communication of program goals, plans, and concerns with their teaching associates, the department faculty and chair, the college dean and the program director
- coordinate the approval process for teaching portfolios and the Certificate in University Teaching
- if possible, participate in Faculty Teaching Mentors' Seminars
- participate in fall and spring meetings of primary faculty liaisons
- submit a spring update report on program activities, plans, and concerns in their department.
- put in place a procedure for appointing a new primary faculty liaison when it becomes necessary to do so. The appointment should be done in consultation with the program director and the appropriate department personnel.
- whenever possible, keep a record of their teaching associates' future professional development: their progress in the job market, in initial faculty positions and in tenure and promotion decisions.
