The majority of outreach at the university is produced by faculty. Outreach is an important expression and application of faculty disciplinary expertise, transformative collaboration, and scholarship. By engaging in outreach, faculty improve life quality in Alabama and beyond. Additionally, they also gain valuable experience and insights that can inform instruction, research and service. The Office of Faculty Engagement provides campus-wide support, advocacy, and leadership in the promotion of outreach at Auburn University.
