Hugh Crumley PhD
Assistant Dean for Academic Affairs
Duke University Graduate School
I am a senior academic developer dedicated to helping graduate students and early-career academics grow as reflective, inclusive, and effective teachers. At Duke University, I founded and direct the Certificate in College Teaching, the university’s largest program preparing PhD students to teach, and I direct the Preparing Future Faculty program, which places doctoral students and postdocs with faculty mentors at partner institutions. I also design research ethics training and collaborate internationally on scalable approaches to teaching development. My practice is grounded in equity, evidence, and community. Beyond higher education, I am an active musician who performs regularly on bass in a range of genres.
