Enhancing student engagement and success using Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and other instructional strategies.
Contact FACET about Student EngagementTowson University is comprised of a community of scholars who engage in relevant, important research and who employ cutting-edge, effective pedagogical approaches by which they enrich student learning. TU has multiple opportunities for faculty to take leadership roles as faculty fellows.
The FACET Scholars program advances faculty research, with guidance from a nationally or internationally known mentor/scholar in the faculty member’s area of study. Through the program, each FACET Scholar carries out a research project with guidance from the mentor over the course of approximately 15 months. The program culminates each year with the presentation of the Scholars’ research at the Towson University MultiFACETed Faculty Research Conference.
