Our orientation is for tenure-track faculty and full-time benefits-eligible contract faculty. (All other categories of new hires should contact Payroll Operations and Employee Benefits.)

Programs include the New Faculty Alpha Day, Payroll Operations and Employee Benefits Sign-up, and workshops designed to help prepare or teach your classes. Orientation is held each year in August.
