A faculty mentor program has been designed to assist all new junior faculty members to build research skills, gain access to a network of researchers, and improve their chances of attaining tenure. Senior faculty mentors are identified and matched with participating junior faculty within departments and across disciplines. The mentors help junior colleagues learn the institutional and system networks and maximize their use for personal development. All new junior faculty members are invited in their letter of offer from the Senior Vice President and Provost to participate in the program on a voluntary basis.
Additional information is available at the departmental and college levels.
