Upcoming Event
New Faculty Connect
December 18, 2025
10:00 – 12:00
In-Person Location: Joyner Library 2301
Virtual via Teams: A link will be sent to registered participants.
All faculty new to ECU in Academic Year 2025-2026 are invited to this session. As your first semester comes to an end, we hope you will join us to connect with one another and faculty colleagues for an opportunity to ask the questions that you may not have thought about during your onboarding process.
Whether you attended New Faculty Orientation facilitated by the OFE, had a one-on-one consultation with someone in the BSOM OFALD office, or participated in an online orientation, we invite you to join us for this workshop. Attendees will hear from the Chair of the Faculty, Mark Bowler, and a panel of OFE Faculty Ambassadors that represent units across campus. Then, participants will breakout into small groups with a faculty facilitator for a time of discussion and Q&A.
You can join the session in-person or virtually. Advance registration by December 12th is required and please indicate how you plan to join us within that survey.
