Welcome to the Faculty Development Center!
The Faculty Development Center is where Puget Sound’s teacher-scholars engage in ongoing work to fulfill professional and public scholarly goals.
The Center’s programming is developed and curated by a group of colleagues committed to supporting holistic faculty excellence. This allows faculty members to engage more effectively with students in the classroom while also modeling what it means to be lifelong learners and producers of knowledge.
These pages share just some of the many resources available to the Puget Sound faculty. We invite you to explore the tools outlined here and utilize the center to its fullest. Whether it’s one-on-one consultations, referrals to on- and off-campus support, or some of the great group events, we look forward to working with and alongside you!
Schedule an appointment today by contacting fdc@pugetsound.edu.
