Connecting faculty members with the right people can build dynamic academic careers, and the Office of Faculty Advancement in the College of Engineering wants to make that happen. The office offers a four-day orientation workshop for new faculty, runs research proposal workshops, holds networking sessions and coordinates faculty visits to funding agencies.

The office is led by Dr. Joel Ducoste, associate dean of faculty advancement and professor in the Department of Civil, Construction, Environmental Engineering.
