Overview

We are enhancing and improving the Academic & Faculty Affairs section of the Wiki this academic year (2025-26). Please share your feedback via Qualtrics and let us know if there are improvements to existing content or additional information or content that would be helpful to include.

Our Mission

The Academic and Faculty Affairs team is dedicated to creating an environment across the College of Liberal Arts that enables students to excel in their studies and faculty to flourish in their careers. We do this by ensuring our policies and practices that support faculty recruitment and advancement, curriculum management, and degree administration closely align with the College’s teaching and research missions; and by working in close partnership with departments, faculty, key staff, and university partners to carry out those policies and practices. We are committed to upholding the highest standards of pedagogical and academic excellence, to identifying and addressing unnecessary administrative barriers and burdens, and to creating incentives and opportunities for faculty, staff, and students to achieve their highest potential.
