Office of Faculty Resources, Planning and Assessment

Welcome to the Office of Faculty Resources, Planning and Assessment. We work to simplify the lives of faculty and department chairs in the College of Agriculture, Food and the Environment by providing timely and helpful resources on a variety of administrative topics. We work with faculty career planning from the first steps of searching to fill a position, through promotion and tenure, and eventually earning emeritus status. We also guide the College of Agriculture, Food and Environment towards future successes by through college strategic planning, program review, accreditation and assessment efforts. If you have questions about any of these areas, please do not hesitate to contact us.
