For Faculty

Teaching a General Education course is one of the most rewarding experiences you may have as a faculty member. This section provides a wide range of information, from creating a syllabus to assessing students’ experiences. It also provides an explanation of resources available for teaching Gen Ed courses.

Faculty, staff, administrators, and other members of the University community who seek support or answers to students’ questions will also find useful information here.

For more information on submitting course proposals via the online system, please see Creating and Managing Courses.
