    New Faculty Orientation

    The goal of new faculty orientation (NFO) is to orient new full-time faculty to UH’s mission and share important information and resources for faculty. NFO is one of the many ways UH invests in faculty success at the University of Houston. Links to websites are listed below. Please explore the orientation information and then register as soon as possible for the NFO session on the third Tuesday in August via the personalized invitation sent to you if you are new faculty at UH.

    Again, welcome!
