Our Mission
Faculty Support is dedicated to providing skilled and creative administrative support to faculty at the Ross School of Business. We strive to excel in technical skills, problem-solving abilities, and initiative, and we are committed to customer service.
Who We Are
The Faculty Support staff consists of two groups of employees. Coordinators, who work in floor teams to provide administrative, classroom, and research support for the faculty located on each floor of the Ross Building. & Academic Area Administrators, who provide support to faculty and area chairs on a department level and can assist with more specialized administrative tasks, such as hiring students, conference planning, and making large purchases.
