The Role of Faculty in Professional Development

Posted on 03. Dec, 2010 by admin in Professional Development

One of the greatest resources available to university students is a well trained faculty and support staff. Professors and other members of the university faculty are more than paid paid instructors. They serve as role models and mentors for students, and they provide guidance and inspiration to students who are enrolled in their courses. Most important, professors encourage students to achieve good results and can provide face to face feedback on assignments and student progress. This feedback can help students identify their strengths and weaknesses and get a head start on their professional development.
