There are many varieties of associate and assistant dean positions. Some specialize in a single area such as assessment or faculty development. Others have broader duties (i.e., associate dean of academic affairs). Those who serve in these roles do so for a variety of reasons.

Some serve temporarily with the intent of returning to a faculty position. And some view it as a long-term position.
