The New Faculty Mentor Program addresses these major goals:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>To promote an ongoing sense of community for faculty at NAU<\/li>\n<li>To invite feelings of collegiality and shared opportunities<\/li>\n<li>To assist new faculty in understanding the university culture<\/li>\n<li>To offer support in the development of productive teaching and research agendas<\/li>\n<li>To create opportunities for maintaining a broad network of professional colleagues<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div>Mentor dyads\/triads will:<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>Commit to the program for one academic year<\/li>\n<li>Meet regularly (monthly) throughout the academic year<\/li>\n<li>Provide an evaluation of the program<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div>\n<div>We hope this mentoring program is rewarding for both the mentor and the mentee and will complement already existing mentor programs within the new faculty member&#8217;s home department.
