To help smooth the transition to UB, and to acquaint new faculty with our leadership and academic, research, and teaching support services and resources, the office of Faculty Affairs presents a New Faculty Orientation program each year. 

Orientation, by invitation, will provide a general regional and university overview including information about our city and UB’s history as well as about our students, student and employee support services, support for research and teaching and educational technology, and the promotion and tenure process. It will also feature a panel of recently tenured faculty colleagues who will give their individual advice about succeeding at UB.  You will also have an opportunity to meet the President and Provost, several university administrators and some of our most accomplished faculty who will impart advice about succeeding at UB.
