2020 Faculty Resource Network

Stetson University has been connected with New York University, and this partnership has allowed our faculty to participate in world-class seminars. NYU offers many different opportunities for college faculty all over the world, from seminars to scholar-in-residence programs. Here is a list of all the upcoming deadlines and programs through NYU:

Summer Scholar-in-residence

The Summer Scholar-in-Residence program allows Network faculty to come to New York University during the month of June to engage in research, develop curricula, and/or produce manuscripts for publication. The program allows Scholars to explore new dimensions in their disciplines, to engage in intellectual exchange and investigate resources not available to them at their home institutions, to broaden their own pedagogical expertise, to enrich existing courses or create new ones, and to expand professional contacts. Participation in the SIR program not only enhances the faculty members’ knowledge and skills, but also significantly contributes to the intellectual environment of their home institutions as they share what they learn with their colleagues and students.
