College of Science Faculty Association
Our goal is to facilitate communication across the College of Science departments and between administration and faculty.
The College of Science Faculty Association exists to serve the College, specifically to represent the faculty to the administration and promote productive communication.
Each spring the executive committee is charged with identifying faculty representatives to serve on 12 different university committees. To implement this we request faculty nominations from departments, based on a schedule in which every department is solicited on a rotating basis.
We look forward to serving you during the coming academic year.
