Provost's Newsletter: Fall 2022 Edition
Dear Colleagues,
As this year comes to a close, I want to take a moment to celebrate the outstanding
scholarly accomplishments of our faculty colleagues. Their collective pursuit of
knowledge through grants, creative expression, publication, and presentation has advanced
their respective disciplines and has increased the reputation of the institution.
The 2021-2022 accomplishments of our remarkable and committed faculty who call Farmingdale
their academic home, include 147 peer reviewed publications, 129 peer reviewed presentations
and 22 grants. These achievements are points of pride for the institution, especially
for the Division of Academic Affairs.
I hope you will enjoy learning more about the meaningful work of our faculty members
as highlighted in the first bi-annual Provost’s Newsletter. As you scroll through
the Newsletter below you will find that each entry is hyperlinked to the publication
or scholarly site of record. Although not every publication or presentation is listed,
a representative sample from each of the four schools is offered to provide a comprehensive
overview.
We are fortunate to be part of a vibrant academic community. I thank all of you for
your commitment to advancing the institution through your efforts in teaching, scholarship
and service.
My very best wishes for a joyous holiday season and a wonderful new year!
With warmest regards,
Dr. Laura Joseph
Senior Vice President and Provost
Office of Academic Affairs
