The Office of the Dean
The Office of the Dean is responsible for providing leadership and oversight for all undergraduate and graduate educational, curricular and student affairs matters and is responsible for ensuring the quality of all students’ academic experiences. The various units housed in the office interact with the college’s department chairs, program directors, staff and students as well as other entities across the university to advance undergraduate and graduate education and to ensure that departmental, collegial and university academic policies and procedures are followed.
Research
The College of Liberal Arts’ Office of Research exists to promote and support high-quality research and scholarship by students and faculty members. The office serves to nurture a climate conducive to research by disseminating internal and external funding opportunities, assisting in proposal construction and submission, post-award administration, and training students and faculty in the implementation and administration of their grants. At the College of Liberal Arts, we highly encourage creative, entrepreneurial and interdisciplinary efforts by students and faculty members.
Faculty Affairs
The Office of Faculty Affairs assists department chairs, faculty and staff with strategic academic planning, faculty recruitment and hiring, tenure and promotion processes, merit processes, sabbaticals, faculty awards, and other aspects of faculty development. The office also runs the annual faculty orientation programs within the College of Liberal Arts, designed to welcome new faculty members to the college.
Finance and Administration
The Office of Finance and Administration is responsible for the development and implementation of university fiscal policies, accounting procedures, internal control mechanisms and financial systems. We prepare all official external financial reports and process all accounts payable transactions. We provide leadership and expertise as a university resource on financial information, business practices and related regulatory issues.
The Office of Finance and Operations also oversees administration for the Office of Research.
Development
The Development Office helps reconnect our alumni with the College of Liberal Arts while helping raise funds essential to continuing our mission of educating the next generation of leaders. Whether you would like to send a check supporting the annual fund or you are considering including Temple in your estate planning, our office is here to help guide you through the giving process.
Development staff members enjoy planning and hosting events that bring you back to campus and reconnect you with your classmates. Development staff also handle invitations and RSVPs for a variety of events on campus and throughout the city.

These resources include faculty research and student interns at the undergraduate and graduate level. The office serves as an important liaison between the university, the community and governments on all levels with respect to public policy issues and questions that may benefit from scholarly research and analysis.
