Description The Faculty Development Program Officer has direct responsibility for administering and managing multiple grant-funded non-scholarship programs in the Research, Evaluation, and Faculty Development Department including, the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation Faculty Career Enhancement Program, the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation Master’s Fellowship Program, the Nyswander and Blanchard Faculty Fellowship Programs, the Mellon Building Sustainability Grant Faculty Fellowship, and Delta Gamma. In addition, the Faculty Development Program Officer will coordinate pathways for dissemination of TCU faculty research including the supervision of the annual Tribal College & University Research Journal, coordination of the annual TCU Faculty Research Convening and Intensive Writing Retreat, and administering the Faculty Professional Development grants and supervising the administration of the Andrew W.

Finally, the Faculty Development officer will develop and lead processes to engage Tribal College faculty to assist the College Fund in our capacity to develop additional opportunities for TCU faculty including the establishment of a first-ever Tribal College and University Faculty Advisory Group.

An individual, who has excellent program management skills, exceptional relationship development and maintenance skills, is familiar with the multiple responsibilities faculty hold at institutions of higher education, and is also cognizant of and has engaged in academic research and the demands of writing and completing a Ph.D. dissertation or other graduate degrees can best achieve this. Familiarity of TCUs and the American Indian communities they serve is helpful.
This position also requires a high level of interpersonal contacts with a variety of program stakeholders. The incumbent will develop and foster relationships with their team; members of the College Fund; administration and staff of the TCUs; past, present and potential future fellows; and donors.

a. Provides ongoing support to fellows and TCUs in order that fellowship objectives are successfully met; b. Organizes annual meetings to orient fellows to program objectives, facilitate progress in the writing of dissertations or theses, and develop knowledge of research methodologies and issues facing TCUs; c. Monitors and manages programs’ budgets and ensures programs’ objectives are met within budget constraints; d. Disburses fellowship payments so as to maximally support fellows and reward progress; e. Develops and manages timelines to meet established programs’ objectives, assuring that milestones are reached, and reporting is on time; f. Creates comprehensive and timely reports for donors that demonstrate outcomes and the impact of grants; g. Assures program documentation is organized, timely, accurate, and accessible to all who may need it, including the fundraising, accounting, and management teams; h. Identifies mentors, expert consultants, and external evaluators to support fellows and provide program assessment; i. Develops contracts needed to meet programs’ objectives; j. Manages relationships with all individuals and organizations related to designated grant programs.
