Online graduate programs face increasing competition for students, funding, and visibility. Yet, many faculty members and academic leadership don’t leverage one of their most valuable assets: their own expertise and thought leadership.
With a faculty perspective from Maryville University, this 30-minute Ed Talk will explore how public scholarship and media visibility can benefit both individual career progression for professors, including tenure and research visibility, and institutional enrollment goals, particularly in graduate education.
Learning Takeaways:
- Bolster Institution Prestige: How academic thought leadership strengthens your career and institution’s reputation, attracting students and funding
- Strengthen Faculty Retention: How public scholarship and media visibility can help faculty stay at your university while increasing the number of tenured professors
- Boost Enrollment: Why faculty engagement in academic thought leadership directly influences graduate student recruitment and enrollment marketing
- Amplify Faculty Voices: Actionable strategies to help faculty and leadership amplify their voices without adding an overwhelming workload
- Research & Commentary: Use your areas of expertise to build your personal brand, tenure packet, and new research opportunities.
***Attendees will be able to safely download a Help a Reporter Out (HARO) worksheet to connect their faculty, students, and alumni to top publications and position them as thought leaders in their fields.
