TRANSCRIPT
What is PFF? Preparing Future Faculty (PFF) is a one-year interdisciplinary for-credit seminar class offered in the fall and spring semesters that allows graduate students and postdocs to explore the many roles of a faculty member. Throughout the year faculty and administrators provide an inside look into the world of higher education (e.g. research, grant writing, how to be successful in the profession, etc.). In the program, students explore the various faculty roles in research/scholarship, teaching, and service and how these can vary depending on the type of institution. Assessment data has shown that those students who complete PFF are better prepared for, and are more successful in, their first faculty position. This program gives an honest, informative overview of what life is like as a faculty member.
