  • Additional Faculty Development and Opportunities outside of Framingham State University

    FSU has been a founding member of the New England Board of Higher Education’s (NEBHE) North Star Collective, a group of colleges and universities in the New England region that are committed to transforming their institutions and uplifting BIPOC faculty. We are starting our third year in this important initiative, thanks to President Niemi for supporting our membership within NSC.

    You might be eligible to apply for the North Star Collective (NSC) Faculty Fellowship, a semester-long fellowship in Spring 2024. The NSC promotes healing and repair for early career BIPOC faculty in New England by providing a nurturing community of care, mentorship, and professional development.
