New Faculty Transition Program

The New Faculty Transition Program consists of four components: cohort formation to create a network of peers; introduction of skills for running a successful research program; well-being and resilience approaches for sustainable work-life integration, and mentoring from institutional leaders.

Important Facts

The program will consist of monthly, 90-minute sessions that include one hour of active learning and thirty minutes of discussion with a leading SoM faculty member.

We anticipate supporting each new faculty member for a year or so and initiating new cohorts annually. We hope that the members will remain in touch after our active support ends.

Although the program will begin using Zoom, we hope to return to in-person sessions as soon as feasible.
