About the UW Faculty Field Tour

The UW Faculty Field Tour is a five-day immersive tour of the state of Washington, designed for faculty members who are new to the state and to the University. Designed as a way to get to know our diverse and fascinating state, past participants note that they not only enjoyed the beautiful landscapes beyond the Puget Sound region, but also gained important context about where students are coming from and how UW has impacts across the state. Get the details.
