Deadline extended: Fall 2021 Faculty Success Program applications due June 11

The Mary Frances Early College of Education will support a cohort to join the Faculty Success Program for fall 2021. The program is for tenure-track and tenured faculty who “are looking for the perfect combination of empirically-tested methods to improve research productivity through intense accountability, coaching and peer support, and to propel their work-life balance and personal growth to a whole new level.” This is an intensive, semester-long program.

College participants will be expected to fully participate in the program as well as attend three one-hour sessions with the associate dean for faculty and staff services throughout the semester—before, during, and after participating in the program. It is our hope that program participants will bring back what they learn to the College.

• Note: Only faculty who have budgeted research time are eligible for this program.

To apply, please fill out the online form.

If you have any questions about the program or would like to talk to a former College participant of the program, please email Ed Delgado-Romero, associate dean for faculty and staff services. For more information about the program, please read the program description on the National Center for Faculty Development and Diversity’s (NFCDD) website.

As a reminder, faculty can claim a free membership to NFCDD by visiting the organization’s website. Under the “Services” menu, select “Institutional Members,” and then click on the University of Georgia link. Be sure to use your UGA email address to create an account. There are a variety of resources available on the website related to succeeding in academia. All doctoral students can also claim a free membership, which gives access to the same resources, as well as to the Dissertation Success Program.
