Faculty Learning Communities

SNU faculty learning communities are called Faculty Cafes,
Communities Achieving Faculty Excellence.

A Faculty Cafe is a cross-discipline peer-led group of faculty who engage in an active, collaborative, and supportive long-term learning community structured to allow space and time for exploration, application, and reflection around a particular teaching and learning topic.
