PAE-9: Support Programs for Future Faculty

1. "BUILDING THE VISION" through the Provost's office. NMSU’s strategic plan is built on President Couture’s "Goals for Success", which focus on DIVERSITY, graduation, international programs, economic development, effectiveness and efficiency, alumni and friends, and NMSU’s culture of pride. The work of the Building the Vision Committee centers on developing, for each goal, objectives, strategies, and key performance indicators for the next three years. The first of our "Goals for Success" as part of Building the Vision is as follows: "Diversity: To strengthen our commitment to diversity of faculty, staff, and students, anchoring our path to excellence in an unwavering commitment to access and tolerance."

2. THE TEACHING ACADEMY: The Teaching Academy supports teachers, enhances learning, and builds community by serving all NMSU educators through training, mentoring, and networking. See link here: http://www.teaching.nmsu.edu/Events/initiatives/index.html

3. The Mission of the Graduate School is to facilitate the exchange of ideas and the creation of knowledge while fostering academic excellence. The Graduate School promotes a high quality-learning environment that EMBRACES DIVERSITY. New Mexico State University is one of the few research extensive universities that reflect Hispanic, Native American, and other New Mexican cultures. Our international students from Latin American, Asian, African, and European countries add to the richness of our diversity. The quality of life of our students is of critical importance to the Graduate School and New Mexico State University. We cultivate the marriage of academic and professional skills while helping students graduate in a timely manner. See link here: http://gradschool.nmsu.edu/gradschool/announcements.html
