The Association of Teaching, Research, and Practice Faculty welcomes you!

Our purpose is to advocate for the interests of full-time, non-tenure track faculty on the Danforth Campus, and to facilitate social and professional interactions among these faculty.


🏆🏆🏆🏆 Congratulations to WashU Arts & Sciences faculty who were among the winners of teaching awards this past Spring!

TRaP faculty by the numbers…

While TRaP faculty represent just 33% of the full-time faculty on the Danforth Campus, they teach 48% of student credit hours. (data as of May 2023)

The Association has many accomplishments to its credit since its inception including, but not limited to:

  • Paid Parental Leave (2018)
  • Provost’s Professional Development Fund (2018)
  • Representation on University Committees and Direct Communication with the Provost
