A wide variety of Faculty Development resources are available for faculty at Wittenberg. Many of these resources are described on this website. Other resources, including Faculty Research Fund Board support, are described in your Faculty Manual. The Faculty Development Board and its administrator are always looking for ways to promote Faculty Development on campus. If you have any suggestions or needs in this area, please contact the current Faculty Development Administrator, Ty Buckman (tbuckman@wittenberg.edu).
