NEW FACULTY ORIENTATION
The 2024 New Faculty Orientation will be conducted in person on August 8 and 9, 2024. During the sessions, faculty will be introduced to UHD's mission and vision, its student body, student support and success resources, research and grant opportunities, pedagogical best practices, policy and procedures. We will build in breaks so that you have time to visit your department and take care of other housekeeping items during the two days. We will also host a reception on the evening of the 9th.
