Welcome to the Center for Faculty Success

The Center for Faculty Success (CFS) is a virtual and physical space for all Rutgers–New Brunswick faculty: tenure track, teaching, research, professional practice, lecturers, and tenured faculty. We hope that faculty in New Brunswick will “start with us” when you have questions or need support in your career. Whether you need a space for small meetings like writing accountability groups or a quiet comfortable spot to do a bit of work between classes, come by the CFS. As part of Faculty Affairs at Rutgers–New Brunswick, the CFS supports faculty across the full span of their careers with opportunities for development, advancement, leadership, and recognition.

Mid-Career Faculty Success Community (FSC) Group
February 7 @ 9:00 am
This spring, the Center for Faculty Success is offering a Mid-Career Faculty Success Community (FSC) Group aimed at faculty who have been awarded tenure and newly promoted to associate professor (within the last 3-4 years). The FSC group, facilitated by Dr. Christine Kephart, will help faculty moving into mid-career map out their scholarly and writing goals; construct realistic weekly plans and strategize ways to overcome challenges to productivity; and discuss challenges specific to mid-career stage faculty who at this point in their careers begin to expand their responsibilities toward leadership roles. This is part of an effort in the Center for Faculty Success to begin focusing on mid-career faculty. The group sessions will be held weekly each Friday, February 7 - April 18, 2025, (excluding March 21), from 9 -10 am via Zoom. Register Now
