The CFT invites all new faculty at Vanderbilt to attend Teaching at Vanderbilt, an orientation for faculty of all ranks who are new to Vanderbilt, sponsored by the Office of the Provost and the Center for Teaching. 

This event will be held on Monday, August 15^th from 3:00 – 5:00 pm at the Center for Teaching (1114 19^th Avenue, at the corner of 19^th and Edgehill Avenues).   This year’s event will offer a selection of interactive sessions in which participants will explore topics such as: 

• Documenting and Evaluating Teaching Effectiveness
• Getting to Know Vanderbilt Undergraduates

Please RSVP by August 8^th by Registering Online or by calling the Center for Teaching at (615) 322-7290.

This event will provide new faculty with an opportunity to meet with some of Vanderbilt’s best teachers, as well as get to know other incoming faculty colleagues.  We will also explore the special nature of teaching at Vanderbilt — the kinds of students faculty encounter, the resources available, and our commitment to excellence in teaching at all levels. Following this event, the Center will host individual consultations and lunchtime workshops addressing a range of teaching topics.  More information on these offerings can be found online.

Welcome to Vanderbilt!
