Mission

The Faculty Support Unit of the School of Natural Sciences facilitates business services for faculty within the School of Natural Sciences. Our mission is to facilitate and promote excellence within the School by reducing - and eliminating where possible - the burden of administrative functions for our faculty. We aim to provide friendly, efficient, and superior support so that our scientists and researchers can focus on what matters the most - their teaching and research. 

We support our School in two overarching areas:

  • We provide support for departmental level items including direct support of Department Chairs in their duties. This support includes but is not limited to:
    • Facilitating departmental meetings
    • Event coordination & support
    • Departmental budget management
  • We provide support to Department Chairs and related campus units in the governance and physical space needs in the School of Natural Sciences

 

Values

Collaboration: While each member of our unit has their own specific roles, we are no strangers to collaborating and working cohesively to efficiently carry out any departmental-related needs. In addition to working closely with one another, we also collaborate with all other SNS units to achieve common school goals and promote camaraderie across teams.

Customer Service: The faculty support unit is built on a strong foundation of customer service. We are passionate about what we do for our faculty and strive to provide them with quality customer service. Our work in assisting the department chairs and servicing faculty is always a top priority and we make sure to do so with careful attention to detail.

Teamwork: Here at SNS we aim to cultivate and foster a friendly and welcoming work environment. Our team is dedicated to supporting and inspiring one another in and out of the office and are constantly encouraging each other to reach new goals in professional development. Even when we’re enjoying our times together and having fun, we remain focused on our working objectives!  “Teamwork makes the DREAM work”
