A brief description of the institution’s programs that help increase the diversity of higher education faculty:
For the past four years, Chatham University has participated in the Rescue Scholars Program. Chatham University commits to the salary for one of the scholars who is an at-risk faculty or future faculty in another country. We support their visa and other documentation processes to come to the U.S. Our first-ever Rescue Scholar now has a full doctoral assistantship at George Mason University. Chatham's International Programs faculty is currently working with the Rescue Scholars Foundation to determine candidates that we can support for the upcoming year 2015-2016.
Chatham University also has a Master of Fine Arts Creative Writing terminal degree. In addition, Chatham University also has a Master of Arts in Psychology transition to the Doctoral program that allows students, especially women, to move from a master’s degree to a PhD program. This program allows them to teach with a Master’s degree. Chatham University also has a nursing program that is a transition to a doctor of nursing program with similar features.
