The Office of Faculty Affairs and Diversity (OFAD) focuses on Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center’s efforts to grow and foster support for a diverse, inclusive faculty, with an emphasis on supporting faculty recruitment, career development, retention, mentorship, and leadership development. This work includes:
- providing training on best practices to all faculty search committees
- tracking key faculty metrics
- evaluating faculty satisfaction
- reviewing and updating faculty policies
- building relationships with key external academic partners
OFAD aims to strengthen partnerships with University of Washington and Seattle Children’s to support faculty diversity and develop a robust plan to enhance diversity for the Cancer Center Support Grant (CCSG) renewal, to enhance the recruitment and career development of Underrepresented Minority (URM) trainees, and to develop partnerships with peer institutions and grow Fred Hutch’s presence as a DEI leader among cancer centers.
