How do you support student success?
I support student success by engaging them in hands-on, cutting-edge research, guiding them from experimental design to analysis. This process fosters critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and research collaboration while offering mentorship and career guidance beyond the classroom and laboratory.
Where at OSU do you feel you have the greatest impact?
Through my involvement in curriculum development and cutting-edge research initiatives, I help shape OSU’s academic framework. Collaborating with colleagues on cross-disciplinary projects, I influence institutional strategies to enhance student success and foster innovative research environments.
Why are you proud to be part of OSU?
I’m proud to be part of OSU for its commitment to innovation, interdisciplinary research collaboration, and global impact. The university fosters a dynamic, inclusive environment where groundbreaking research thrives, empowering both students and faculty to address pressing global challenges.
What to Expect
During the visit, peer evaluators will host forums with faculty, staff, and students. All members of the OSU community are welcome to participate in the forum corresponding to their role. We hope faculty, staff, and students see themselves as contributors to accreditation through their everyday work.
For academic faculty, discussions will likely focus on student learning, assessment, and achievement. Forums for teaching faculty will likely be asked about course learning outcomes - particularly within Core Education. Department chairs and program directors will likely focus on annual program assessments that they complete, and college leadership will likely focus on the Academic Unit Assessment at the college level. As shown in the graphic, these efforts are interconnected and collectively demonstrate OSU’s commitment to continuous improvement.
Please visit the accreditation website for more information about the university accreditation cycle and to find copies of submitted reports. If you have additional questions, please email [email protected] and someone will be happy to assist.
