Center for Principled Problem Solving Seeking Candidates for Faculty Fellowship in 2008-09
The Center for Principled Problem Solving is seeking letters of interest from faculty members for the 2008-09 CPPS Faculty Fellowship, which offers faculty members the opportunity to advance the work of principled problem solving at Guilford over the course of an academic year. Deadline for letters of interest is Monday, March 31.
During the year, the fellowship recipient works directly with the CPPS director to shape and advance the priorities of the center and advance a PPS project of her or his choosing. The fellowship project will be consistent with the faculty member's experience and interests, and developed in conversation with the center director. Possible projects may include, but are not limited to, a targeted hands-on PPS project, a PPS research undertaking, creating new or retooling existing syllabi to match PPS priorities, PPS faculty seminar development. This project may be completed during the fellowship term or become an ongoing or occasional feature of the center's future efforts.
This is a part-time appointment, roughly the equivalent of one day per week. The individual selected for the fellowship will be released from one course in either the fall or spring semester and receive $5,000 in additional pay. Funds will be made available to the fellowship recipient's department to compensate for the course release, and he or she will have access to additional funds for programming, materials or travel expenses related to the fellowship project. One recipient will be selected for 2008-09 by the CPPS director in conversation with the relevant division chair and with the approval of the academic dean.
