The UMass Amherst Office of Faculty Development (OFD) assists all faculty in developing and advancing their careers. Regardless of career stage, whether it be acclimating to campus, getting a first book published, achieving tenure, or learning to effectively communicate in a leadership position, all faculty can benefit from professional development. Central to all OFD activities is our focus on advancing inclusive programming and support for all of UMass Amherst’s diverse faculty.
