Mental Health & Well-Being

Occupational well-being is a multi-dimensional construct that includes affective, professional, social, cognitive, and psychosocial well-being. Literature indicates that in complex jobs like the roles held by academics, satisfaction – a key domain of well-being at work – is linked to positive personal and professional outcomes. Faculty well-being and mental health are influenced by relationships with colleagues and students through supportive and inclusive communities and culture.
