麻豆国产AV offers a College-wide mentoring program that aims to build a community of teacher-scholars. As part of that process, new faculty receive consistent advice about career advancement, both within the institution and beyond it. The program helps new faculty strategize ways to improve their teaching, pursue their scholarship, and find appropriate levels of service, and it assists in the development and integration of skills in self-assessment, self-management, and self-presentation. 

Each new faculty member is assigned to a small mentoring group with a number of new-faculty peers and one or two mentors from the continuing faculty. The group participates in a combination of structured workshops with all new faculty (see below) and more informal small-group meetings to facilitate real-time consultation and ongoing peer-to-peer mentoring.

All new tenure-track faculty are enrolled in the College’s mentoring program.  Faculty in visiting positions are given the option to participate.

While the smaller group meetings are organized and initiated by the individual groups, all groups participate in the structured workshops, held twice a semester in the first year and once a semester in the second year. Below is the current curriculum for the structured workshops.
