Opportunities
Faculty and Staff Development Opportunities
The Institute offers opportunities for faculty and staff from across the disciplines to connect under a shared mission of transforming and integrating the paradigms and pedagogies of liberal arts and the professions. Faculty and staff can make these connections through:
- participating in reading groups,
- participating in lectures, seminars and events,
- applying for upcoming teaching and research fellowships,
- attending professional development opportunities, and more.
