Faculty Life & Development
As a student-centered university focused primarily on excellence in teaching, Bridgewater State is committed to the professional development of its full-time and part-time faculty and librarians. This commitment is provided to them through all stages of their careers and across all disciplines and in all relevant areas of professional attainment, including teaching, scholarship and work/life balance. Through faculty development, we aim to establish and sustain a community of teacher-scholars and a university culture that values, promotes, and rewards meaningful professional growth.
The Office of Teaching and Learning (OTL) provides exceptional support to faculty and librarians for innovation in teaching and learning through workshops, grants and consultations with individuals and departments.
The Center for the Advancement of Research and Scholarship (CARS) promotes individual, collaborative and interdisciplinary scholarship through grants and engaging activities.
The Faculty Advocacy Network (FAN) provides one-on-one collaborative and group support to Bridgewater State University faculty at all phases of their careers.
Bridgewater’s professors are known for their commitment to their students. At every turn, they are ready to serve as mentors, guides and the guardians of your greatest aspirations. Here are a few examples of our outstanding faculty.
