We are mesa days
We Are Mesa Days are designed for New faculty who will begin their full-time positions at Mesa in the 2023-2024 academic year. There will be a series of presentations and activities throughout the day to acclimate new faculty to Mesa and provide information on their positions as tenure-track faculty. All information presented during the Mesa Day is geared toward supporting their positions as tenure-track faculty.

New Faculty institute
Each Month, members of New Faculty Institute will meet the 3rd Friday of each month from 1:00 - 3:00 in the LOFT (unless otherwise noted) to learn and discuss topics that will help prepare them for their new positions as tenure-track faculty. These meetings will support new faculty in preparing for classes, becoming aware of services available to students and faculty, understanding job duties, and more. All information presented during the New Faculty Institute Meetings is geared toward supporting their positions as tenure-track faculty.
