The Teaching Stream Faculty (formerly Lecturers') Committee advises the FAUW Board on matters pertaining to the working conditions of teaching stream faculty.
Teaching stream faculty fill diverse roles within the University that are distinct from those of professorial-rank faculty and thus have distinct needs. The committee, which has representation from all faculties, is particularly concerned with the career paths of teaching stream faculty, including terms and conditions of employment, teaching loads, and progression.
What's involved?
Serving on the Teaching Stream Faculty Committee involves attending monthly meetings from September through June, contributing to one or more committee projects, and providing feedback on issues and initiatives in meetings and via email as they arise.
Members typically join for a renewable two-year term.
Please see the Teaching Stream Faculty Committee Terms of Reference for more information. You must be a voting member of FAUW to join the committee.
Committee representation
Ideally, the committee membership should consist of:
- one Teaching Stream Faculty Member from each of the Faculties of Health and Environment;
- two Teaching Stream Faculty Members from each of the Faculties of Engineering, Mathematics, Science and Arts; and
- two elected representatives of the FAUW Board, at least one of whom is not a Teaching Stream Faculty Member.
This committee is currently seeking 1 member representing the Faculty of Science, for a 2-year term beginning July 1, 2025
