Welcome to Tarleton State University!
DATE: Friday, August 16, 2024 (plan for 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.)
LOCATION: Ag Mechanics Building, Room 119 (please note – this location is at the Tarleton Agriculture Center, away from the main campus. See map)
New Faculty Orientation is intended for those joining Tarleton’s faculty team for the upcoming academic year as well as those who have joined sometime within the last academic year (after last year’s orientation). The day will include:
- important onboarding information from Human Resources, Academic Affairs, and the Center for Educational Excellence
- Q&A with new faculty who have joined Tarleton in the last few years
- a chance to get your Texan Card Faculty ID
- professional photograph for department websites, LinkedIn, etc.
- opportunities to visit representatives from various campus resources
Participants from all Tarleton locations are strongly encouraged to attend New Faculty Orientation in person to receive maximum benefit. A make-up session will be held on Zoom the following week for those unable to attend the in-person event.
New Faculty Orientation also serves as the kickoff for the New Faculty Academy which will take place throughout the academic year with timely information related to the faculty role. Participation in the New Faculty Academy is highly encouraged as it will help build a strong foundation for your career at Tarleton.
We look forward to meeting you and helping with your transition to Tarleton State University! If you have questions specific to this session, please contact Academic Affairs via email [email protected] or phone 254-968-9103.
If you are not able to attend orientation, please contact Academic Affairs immediately via email at [email protected]
If you have not already provided your original transcripts to your department head or Academic Affairs, please do so ASAP!
