3FP 2020 Intensive Applicant Survey Start of Block: Changes to 3FP Program INFORMATION ABOUT PROGRAM CHANGES In 2021, the Future Faculty Fellows Program (3FP) will be shifting to a calendar year (January to December) program. Based on feedback from recent years’ cohorts, this shift will better align program outcomes with participants’ career schedules and goals. Program components and outcomes will remain the same. In order to still provide a substantial professional development opportunity for students graduating before December 2021 (who would be ineligible for a program running through December 2021), a one-time only gap semester program will be offered in Fall 2020 (August to December). This program will be an intensive version of 3FP with a weekly rather than bi-weekly commitment. The primary activities and outcomes for this semester-long program will include assisting with TA Orientation and Fall 2020 TA Cafes; developing a Teaching Portfolio, including a Teaching Philosophy Statement; teaching professional development sessions; and a Fall Retreat. While any graduate student meeting the 3FP application criteria is eligible for this one-time only gap semester program, priority will be given to students graduating before December 2021 or who would otherwise be ineligible for the new calendar year program.
