APPS 5.07 Faculty Development 

The college and department require faculty to continuously improve teaching and research through research and attending workshops and conferences. The department also requires faculty to maintain professional involvement and to interact with professionals at conferences, workshops and presentations on and off campus. Campus presentations by professionals attended by faculty and students provide learning opportunities for all and opportunities for interaction that are a critical element of continuous learning. 

The department recognizes that service to the academic, professional and local community is an important component of a faculty’s responsibilities and encourages faculty to develop a balanced program teaching, research and service commensurate with their rank.
