ABOUT OFAD

The mission statement for the Office of Faculty Affairs and Development is “Advancing Faculty Excellence”, which reflects our commitment to supporting faculty at the University of Nevada School of Medicine. This office works to offer a range of faculty development opportunities including orientations, workshops and individual consultations. We also support programs and departments by facilitating retreats and offering targeted training activities. The Office of Faculty Affairs and Development also supports the Faculty Council and the Video in Medical Education (VIME) and Women in Medicine (WIM) interest groups. This office coordinates the Promotion and Tenure process and is a liaison with the Division of Health Sciences planning committee.

We invite you to navigate through our site and find faculty opportunities for individual professional development in education, research, and leadership growth. We can also work with chairs and directors to facilitate faculty and organizational development that will enhance the mission of your departments.
