The call for applications for the Chancellor's Faculty Fellow has been expanded to include individuals in all faculty positions. As of March 17, 2022, leadership made this opportunity available for all CU Denver faculty – lecturers, instructors, clinical teaching track, tenure-track and tenured faculty – and has extended the application deadline to Monday, April 4 at noon.
The Chancellor’s Faculty Fellowship was announced in July 2020 as a result of Chancellor Michelle Marks’ Equity Listening Sessions. Nominated annually to one-year terms, the Faculty Fellow will focus each year on a different topic of strategic priority to CU Denver. The primary responsibilities of the faculty fellow are to advise the chancellor and CU Denver leadership team related to the topic as well as to work on projects that support the designated topic. As an advisor to the Chancellor and leaders across the university, leadership will look to the Fellow as a thought partner and catalyst on implementation of our 2030 Strategic Plan. The Fellow may take on responsibilities such as researching, conceptualizing, and presenting ideas for consideration; ensuring our practices around implementation are at the cutting edge seen in higher education and industry; and maintaining an understanding of issues related to implementation within the CU Denver community and raising those to the attention of the Chancellor and cabinet members.
More information about requirements and application instruction can be found on the Chancellor’s website.
