| |  | | Preparing Future Faculty
Preparing Future Faculty (PFF) welcomes graduate and postdoctoral participants from all disciplines. PFF helps participants acquire information about the teaching and learning process and the faculty role at a variety of institutions of higher education; gain a realistic perspective on the skills required for success as a faculty member; examine their fit with a teaching career in higher education; work with a faculty mentor in a teaching opportunity at a local college or university; demonstrate, document, and reflect on their teaching skills; and market themselves for faculty or other professional positions.
To receive a letter of recognition and certificate of program participation from the Graduate School, participants must complete GRAD 8101—Teaching in Higher Education and GRAD 8102—Practicum for Future Faculty. Other credit courses on teaching and learning or the faculty role may be recognized by PFF as substitutes for GRAD 8101 or GRAD 8102.
PFF is a program of the Graduate School, administered through the Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL) in the Office of Human Resources. For more information, contact PFF at 612-625-3811 or pff@umn.edu, drop by CTL in 315 Science Classroom Building, or visit www.umn.edu/ohr/teachlearn/pff/. |
