New Faculty Orientation

This website gives new faculty members who are joining AUB easy access to essential information. It links to places and people at AUB who can help you before your arrival on campus and during the initial stages of your employment.


Acting Provost Waddah Nasr

Dr. Heath

A very warm welcome to AUB.  You join the University at the conclusion of an institutional self-study process that we hope will lead to the renewal of AUB’s institutional accreditation by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education next June.  The first draft of the self-study report has now been published on the Accreditation Project website on the homepage of AUB.  All the constituencies of the University are invited to review this document and are strongly urged to send their input and suggestions to the Self-Study Steering Committee.  Going over this report provides a unique and excellent opportunity for new faculty to become familiar with the institution they have joined and get a sense of its current practices, its achievements and challenges.  The history of AUB is one of continuity and renewal, often achieved under very adverse conditions prevailing in the surrounding environment. The past ten years are no exception.  During those years the University has been fostering a culture of self assessment and improvement.  Be assured that your contributions to excellence in teaching and research will be greatly valued and appreciated.  I wish you success and look forward to meeting you on campus.
