Preparing Future Faculty

This current year I have been given the opportunity to participate in the Preparing Future Faculty (PFF) program organized by the Duke Graduate School. This yearlong program offers students a wide range of experiences in higher education from universities and colleges around the Research Triangle. 

Through the program I have the opportunity to attend site visits to 7 diverse higher education institutions in the North Carolina Research Triangle. The participating institutions include

• Duke University
  
• North Carolina State University
  
• North Carolina Central University
  
• Durham Technical Community College
  
• Meredith College
  
• Elon University
  
• Guilford College. 

I also meet regularly with a mentor at Guilford College to learn more about faculty life and the requirements of the position at a smaller teaching-focused institution.
