New Heads & Chairs Academy 2025

Presented by the Office of Faculty Development and the Office of the Provost

Join us for this two-day event! Thursday, Aug. 7 & Friday, Aug. 8, from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. each day

This leadership academy supports the transition from faculty member to departmental leader in one of the most important and challenging jobs on campus. Participants will learn from former heads/chairs about the art and responsibilities of departmental leadership, managing conflict, staff supervision, and more. Past attendees have found the peer mentorship and friendships they formed through the academy to be key supports during their first years as departmental leaders. 

This session is open to new heads/chairs by invitation. Please email @email with questions or for more information.
