Faculty Writing Assistance

Though often subsumed under their roles as researchers, teachers, and scholars, writing plays an integral part in faculty development. ֱ University supports faculty in their writing endeavors by offering on-on-one consulting for projects such as journal articles, grant proposals, book-length manuscripts, revise and resubmit edits, book proposals, and course assignments. ֱ aspires to make the process of writing more efficient, collaborative, productive, and rewarding.  For additional information, please contact at emily.carson@villanova.edu, 610-519-4273.

                                          

Other Faculty Resources

The Office of the Provost regularly issues policy documents, publications and reports usually in a handbook format. Specific policies can be found in these publications.
