Information for Field Faculty

The Field Education faculty is comprised of approved Field Instructors and Task Supervisors. These important people supervise student interns in various internships and situations. They give of their time and their knowledge and without them, Field Education would not be possible.

Once the Field Education office receives a completed Field Instructor Information Sheet or Task Supervisor Information Sheet, the approval process for new supervisors begins.

All Field faculty that have been entered as auxiliary personnel are issued Baylor Faculty Identification Cards. These cards entitle Field Instructors and Task Supervisors to the following*:

• Identification as Baylor University Field faculty, including Bear ID and Baylor email
