About the Faculty Advisory Council

UMUC’s system of faculty governance was formed to create an environment for more informed participation and collaboration in the affairs of the university by faculty. The Faculty Advisory Council (FAC) represents all faculty, including librarians, in UMUC Adelphi, UMUC–Asia and UMUC–Europe. The FAC consists of 18 elected members and one ex officio, non-voting member appointed by the Provost.
