The Faculty Center for Professional Development, established in September 1990, provides individual assistance and sponsors campus discussion groups and workshops on exploring alternative teaching strategies, improving classroom instruction, and advancing research and scholarly activities. These workshops, offered throughout the year and conducted by Cal Poly faculty, enhance collegial relations and promote a multicisciplinary exchange of insights and support for efforts at improvement and innovation. The Faculty Forum provides an opportunity for faculty to present their research or creative work to colleagues.
The Center also helps faculty prepare proposals and applications for campus and CSU programs and for extramurally supported fellowships and awards. Bulletins from the Center inform faculty of development opportunities, awards and fellowships, conferences and workshops, etc.
A Faculty Development Advisory Committee, made up of one elected faculty member from each college and school and the Library, guides the work of the Faculty Center. The advisory committee members welcome your comments and suggestions for the Center. Please feel free to contact them.
