New Faculty Brown Bag (+) Series

A pictire from a prior brown bags seminar, where faculty are sitting at desks, and discussing the topic.

Faculty Affairs offers a series of brown bag seminars to assist new faculty members in the development of a successful career at UB. 

These workshops will provide opportunities for new faculty to explore topics that were introduced during the New Faculty Orientation as well as respond to questions and concerns that have emerged during their transition into faculty life at UB.  Meet a variety of campus leaders including vice provosts and administrators, recently tenured or senior faculty, as well as professional staff experts to engage in discussions regarding the multi-faceted issues associated with academic life.

The New Faculty Brown Bag (+) Lunch Series is:

  • An opportunity to further explore topics that were introduced at orientation as well as additional areas relevant to faculty success and well-being. 
  • Held on Wednesdays as 90 minute noon-time seminars. 
  • An upgraded brown bag experience, with light refreshments served from 11:45 am on. 
  • An invitation to first and second year new faculty cohorts.
  • Intended to be interactive and responsive, your feedback and requests drive the conversation and future planning.
