Research and Faculty Development
We support the scholarship and development of our faculty. We recognize and celebrate the intellectual and creative achievements of our faculty and librarians. These activities both spring from and feed our central teaching mission.
Faculty Development Day is a triannual conference that provides resources to build community and enhance faculty life at Fitchburg State.
This includes plenary sessions, deep dives into faculty research, and informational resources that are relevant to faculty at all career stages. Additionally, we celebrate faculty accomplishments with an annual award celebration that recognizes excellence in specific areas of teaching.
Past development sessions have included curriculum balance, understanding and supporting diverse segments of our student population, and an exploration of growth mindset.
