New Faculty Orientation aims to help new faculty members acclimatize to the University of Waterloo and get to know our campus resources and support systems. Over two days and four online sessions, 2021 orientation attendees will learn about the culture and community at Waterloo, how the University supports and integrates teaching and research, and opportunities to build your career and skills. Each session will include time for audience questions.
Faculty members who've started since September 1, 2020, will receive invitations to all four sessions from the Provost's Office. Information about the events is available in the New Faculty Orientation LEARN site, along with additional resources for new faculty members. Please contact Laura McDonald if you are a new faculty member and have not been added to the LEARN site by August 10.
