Faculty Role

USF undergraduate students are acquiring career readiness competencies in their courses, but they often do not realize it, do not take an opportunity to reflect on what they have learned, and lack the vocabulary to ultimately demonstrate their competencies to employers or graduate/professional schools. Additionally, many faculty simply do not have the time to do extensive career outcomes research in the ever-changing economy.

The ExCeL QEP is designed to address these career readiness challenges in support of USF's esteemed faculty.

  • Understand the career readiness competencies being utilized in your courses by including them on on your syllabi.
