These new TRUCEN lightning sessions are designed based on the highly successful ones we’ve traditionally held during the annual meeting. During each of these virtual lightning sessions we’ll highlight four campuses doing promising work in a specific theme. This session will focus on Faculty Fellow and Graduate Student Development programs. During this 90 minute session, attendees will: 

• Learn about four different examples of how campuses are approaching the creation and integration of Faculty Fellow and Graduate Student Development programs:
  • JHU SOURCE Service-Learning Academy
  • University of Pennsylvania: The Graduate Certificate in Community-Engaged STEM
  • Northwestern University Graduate Program in Training Civic Scholars
  • University of New Hampshire: Sustainability Fellowships program
• Have an opportunity to ask questions and connect directly with two of the presenters in smaller breakout rooms. 

Agenda: 

• Framing/introductions by moderator
• 7-minute presentations by each presenter 
• Two rounds of break-out groups (each 15 minutes) where attendees can choose which presenter they want to have a follow-up conversation with 
• Closing comments and key takeaways
