Top Ten Tips for New Faculty with Mary Deane Sorcinelli, EdD

As longtime listeners can attest, we love lists here at the Faculty Factory. This week we are joined by Mary Deane Sorcinelli, EdD who brings us the gift of her top ten tips for new faculty.

Dr. Sorcinelli is Professor Emeritus & Senior Fellow, Center for Teaching & Learning with University of Massachusetts Amherst.

Providing guidance and support to help navigate the challenges of academic medicine is what we are all about. Dr. Sorcinelli’s in-depth list will help young faculty build a strong foundation for the rigors of their career.

While geared towards young faculty, this list provides truly valuable insights and advice that will benefit faculty at all stages of their career.

The list came from Dr. Sorcinelli thinking about what advice she wished she had received when she started out in her career.

“I looked at the research which had identified a couple of core issues and interwoven concerns that new faculty have,” she told us.

To learn more, please feel free to reach out to Dr. Sorcinelli via email: dene@umass.edu. She will be more than happy to send you a document of the tips she outlined in today’s interview.
