  1. Preparing Future Faculty Fellows School of Graduate Studies University of Missouri-Kansas City

  2. Preparing Future Faculty (PFF) Fellowship Overall Program Expectations -- UMKC's Preparing Future Faculty Fellowship program is modeled after a national Preparing Future Faculty Project conceived by the Council of Graduate Schools and the American Association of Colleges and Universities in 1993 and funded by the Pew Charitable Trusts.

  3. The primary goals of PFF programs are to expose graduate students to a variety of teaching, research, and service experiences at various types of institutions beyond the research university and to ultimately change the culture of graduate education.

  4. At UMKC, PFF Fellows: • receive fellowship stipends for three years • work closely with faculty mentors throughout their program • participate in teaching excellence seminars, and • explore the range of faculty roles and opportunities at a variety of institutions of higher education.

  5. Three themes guide the UMKC PFF Fellow activities: • Preparing for excellence in teaching: • Focus on diversity, technology, Interdisciplinarity, and collaboration • Exploring the Possibilities: • Focus on range of faculty roles and variations among "cluster" institutions • Preparing for the Job Market
