Faculty & Belonging

Faculty and Belonging: A Strategic Focus on Faculty Diversity

With a focus on elevating the voice and advancement of faculty members at IU, the Faculty and Belonging initiative strives to recruit and retain faculty, creates a new generation of scholars and administrators, develops and presents programs and workshops focused on faculty recruitment and retention efforts, cultivates partnerships with minority-serving institutions and organizations, and participates in various research and scholarly activities.

Supporting Faculty Connections

These connections include on-campus and off-site events organized by the associate vice president for Faculty and Belonging (with input from the faculty). The experiences are designed to promote relationships and help create a sense of belonging and community among faculty. From lunches, walks around the track, to virtual sessions, opportunities to connect as a community take place throughout the year, across IU’s campuses.
