This yearlong series is a collaboration between Faculty Affairs and Research Development Service. Each virtual workshop is mentored by experienced faculty and staff at Mason. Our goal is to have productive conversations and leave with concrete strategies and understandings of effective practices that can be tailored to the needs of Mason’s faculty.

Navigating Politics in Academia Academic institutions and local academic units can be quite political, and it is not unusual for early career faculty members to land amid conflicts they don’t know how to navigate (or get out of). Recognizing that it’s not easy to extricate yourself from political conflicts without offending potentially powerful senior colleagues, you are invited to a discussion about navigating academic politics with experienced Mason professors who will share their experiences/ perspectives on how to manage this side of academic life. |
