What We Do

Mission

The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine's Office of Faculty: Faculty Development creates and delivers effective programs that develop and nurture our diverse faculty as leaders in clinical care, medical education, and research excellence. Our focus on enriching a culture of inclusion, respect, and engagement is fundamental in accomplishing the Johns Hopkins mission and in enabling the School of Medicine to attract and retain our talented faculty. 

Vision

We envision a culture in which all faculty members are engaged, invested, and passionate about their career development.

The Office of Faculty: Faculty Development seeks faculty feedback from three councils. The two primary boards responsible for advising us on the professional development needs of Johns Hopkins faculty are Faculty Development Advisory Board and the Early Career Advisory Board. Additionally, the Faculty Senate and the Office of Faculty work closely together. Learn more
