Our mission at the Center for Faculty Excellence is to guide all University of Oklahoma faculty in every facet of career development, including teaching, community engagement, and research and creative activities, from their first year at OU through the full arc of their faculty career.
CFE's New Faculty Orientation will be on August 17 & 18 this year. It will be held at the National Weather Center on both days. Please save these dates, as we will have more details coming to you soon.
