Future Professoriate Program (FPP) Annual Conference

 

Each year the Future Professoriate Program (FPP) sponsors a professional development conference for FPP participants and faculty at Syracuse University and nearby schools.

FPP Annual Conference
May 14-15, 2025
Lyman Hall, SU main campus
 

The free conference will feature a full slate of FPP-themed programming and opportunities to engage with faculty from SU and diverse institutions around the CNY region. See the FPP Conference program  and presenter bios for details.

The relaxed environment provides a forum for faculty and graduate students from all disciplines to discuss current issues in higher education, connect with faculty from a range of regional institutions, and envision future directions for the FPP.

Programming includes a combination of plenary and concurrent sessions that address multiple facets of graduate student and faculty life. Common session topics include teaching strategies, job search preparation, the grad-student-to-faculty transition, grant seeking, academic publication, and more.

Registration for the FPP Conference has now closed.  However, you may still register for the keynote address (Wednesday, May 14 ) and/or FPP alum roundtable plenary session (Thursday, May 15).
