Andreas Broscheid is the assistant director for career planning at the Center for Faculty Innovation and professor of Political Science at JMU. His work is based on the firm belief that community is central to the vitality of a university and the success of its faculty. Andreas works to strengthen JMU's community of learners, scholars, and colleagues by coordinating and conducting programs that connect JMU faculty and help them clarify their career and life goals, make plans for achieving those goals while living a balanced life, document their successes, and build collegial networks.

Andreas has been a faculty member of the JMU political science department since 2006 and has taught classes on the government of the United States, particularly the courts, as well as on research methods. Between 2011 and 2013, Andreas was a faculty associate at the Center for Faculty Innovation, working largely on programs in the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning. Before coming to JMU, Andreas taught at UNC Pembroke and conducted research at the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Societies in Cologne, Germany (his hometown). He has a Ph.D. in political science from Stony Brook University (2000).
