Hello!
Thank you for your interest in Office of the Vice Provost Faculty Forward Newsletter. This form can be used to submit requests for the newsletter. Please read the following information before submitting the form.
Newsletter Information
- Frequency: The newsletter is published once a month during the academic year (August - May). There are no newsletters in June and July.
- Audience: The newsletter is sent to faculty and instructors across all locations, schools/colleges, and departments.
- Sections: The newsletter typically includes a section for announcements, events, resources, and other opportunities (e.g., funding, fellowships, etc). We occassionally add in other sections as necessary.
Submission Information
- Due Dates: The newsletter is typically sent during the first week of the month. All requests should be sent two weeks ahead of publication in order to be included in that month's newsletter.
- Relevance: We accept requests from all units and locations. We tend to advertise information that is relevant for a broader range of faculty (e.g., university-wide event or an event involving faculty across colleges) vs. very specific information (e.g., a department only event). If you are unsure about your event/announcement, we invite you to submit a response, and we will reach out with any questions.
- Content: We ask that you provide as much information as possible. Note that our office may edit descriptions and may or may not include images based on formatting and space requirements.
- Examples: See an example of a previous newsletter to get a better idea of the format.
OVPF Calendar
- Publishing Events: In addition to the newsletter, we also advertise faculty and postdoc events on our OVPF calendar. If you would like to submit an event to the Faculty & Postdoc Calendar, navigate to https://events.cmu.edu/submit/, add your event information, select "Office of the Vice Provost for Faculty" in the "Submit to Calendar" drop down, and click "Submit Event".
After submitting the form, an OVPF team member will be in contact with you if there is any other required information. For questions, please email our office at vpfaculty@andrew.cmu.edu.
Thank you for keeping our faculty up to date on the many opportunities here at CMU.
Best wishes,
Office of the Vice Provost for Faculty
