Lecturer Welcome and Orientation

This one day session in late August welcomes and acclimates our new lecturers to Rutgers–New Brunswick and its many campus resources. It is a great time to network with new colleagues.

Serves as the orientation for new fulltime faculty including Teaching, Tenure track, Research, Extension, Library, and Professional Practice faculty. Part 1 takes place over two days in late August and includes the new employee orientation conducted by Human Resources. A second session takes place online the week before classes begin in January.
