New Faculty Resources
Welcome to Bowling Green State University! The Center for Faculty Excellence (CFE) is here to serve as a resource for your professional development as a member of the BGSU Teaching Community. As a new faculty member, the CFE has created targeted resources to assist you in your first year at BGSU. Please review the information below regarding your New Faculty Orientation program and the New Faculty Resource Handbook. As a full-time faculty member at BGSU, you also have access to use all of the CFE Full-Time Faculty Resources, Instructor Communities, Workshops, Certificate Programs, and Just-in-Time Resources.
New Faculty Orientation Program
All new Full-Time Faculty are required to attend the New Faculty Orientation (NFO) program as part of their onboarding with the university. This university-level program is meant for all newly hired faculty of all ranks and tracks from both Main and Firelands campus. This event complements any orientation programming offered by your unit, and you are highly encouraged to engage in both.
New Faculty Orientation Canvas Shell
The New Faculty Orientation Canvas Shell is an online repository of information that is of value to you during your first year at BGSU. Information about New Faculty Orientation, Workshops, and Campus & Community Resources will be housed here and available for you to reference through out your time as a new fauclty member.
New Faculty Institute Learning Community
The New Faculty Institute (NFI) is a learning community focused on creating a space for new BGSU faculty to connect and engage in discussions about their teaching, scholarship, career plans, and general experiences as faculty. Institute gatherings will be held twice a month with asynchronous activities between sessions. The first gathering each month will be a chance to have informal discussions and collaborate on creating an action plan to set you up for success. The second gathering each month will involve discussions and activities related to a topic in the book Small Teaching: Everyday Lessons from the Science of Learning. Throughout the program, faculty at various career stages will be invited to join gatherings to share their knowledge, experiences, and advice with NFI members.
