The associate provost for faculty affairs oversees and supports mentoring, professional development, and leadership opportunities for faculty.
The associate provost provides administrative support for the University’s humanities, social and behavioral sciences, and STEM departments and programs. She works closely with the provost and the other associate provosts.
The Associate Provost for Faculty Affairs works to promote a culture of faculty thriving for all faculty across the institution. She oversees all aspects of the faculty professional life-cycle, from recruitment and hiring to onboarding, mentoring and professional development, tenure and promotion processes, and transition to retirement. Partnering closely with members of senior leadership as well as key faculty governance committees, she develops policies and processes governing faculty work, partners on the development of academic budgets and faculty compensation strategy, and directs a team responsible for analysis and dissemination of institutional data pertaining to student academic achievement and the development of strategies to improve outcomes.
Being a new faculty member is both exciting and stressful. Clark has a support program for mentoring new faculty; all first-year tenure-track faculty will be assigned mentors prior to their arrival at Clark.
Orientation for new tenure-track faculty occurs annually in August.
The Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning (CETL) offers programs and services to enhance the quality of education at Clark University.
