New Faculty Orientation

New Faculty Orientation


The Office of the Provost sponsors annual orientation programs to assist new faculty in learning more about the academic community at MSU. The orientation program provides an overview of the University, identifies expectations of the University community, and facilitates active involvement in faculty affairs.

Orientation for new tenure system and HP faculty, continuing appointment system librarians and executive managers will be held on Tuesday, August 19, 2008.

A new orientation program for new fixed term faculty and academic staff will be held on Tuesday, September 23, 2008.

There will also be two additional workshops open to all new faculty and academic staff. A workshop on technology at MSU will be held on Thursday, August 14, 2008 and a workshop on research at MSU on Thursday, September 18.

Program participants are notified about the annual session by invitation only and receive registration materials in the mail. The list of invitees is generated from appointment actions entered into the Academic Human Resources database system.
