Dear colleagues,
We are proud to introduce our new faculty colleagues. New faculty bring new energy and talent to our Duke community and enrich our academic and intellectual life. Please join us in welcoming them to our Duke family and ensuring they have the support they need to thrive and fully contribute to our educational, research and engagement missions.
The Office for Faculty Advancement is committed providing all faculty with the resources and support needed to thrive. We invite you to take advantage of these offerings, including our Faculty Advancement and Success (FAS) workshop series, Seed Grants Program, leadership development programs, affinity groups, professional coaching and best practices on areas critical to faculty growth and success. Please visit our website to meet our team and learn more.
I wish you a fulfilling academic year and look forward to partnering with you to support your work and promote your success.

A diverse faculty — defined broadly as representing a wide range of identities, lived experiences and perspectives — is a prerequisite for excellence and is essential to driving innovation within our scholarly community. We work to recruit and retain outstanding faculty and strive to promote a welcoming academic culture and community that lives up to the Duke values of respect, trust, inclusion, discovery and excellence.
