The Office of the Vice President for Research is pleased to welcome new faculty to Wayne State University. We aim to provide resources to assist new faculty as they lay the groundwork for excellence in research, teaching, and service.

We hope you can attend our Research Reception for New Faculty on October 30, 2018. For information and to RSVP, click here.

Every year the Division of Research has a VIRTUAL SCAVENGER HUNT for new faculty members to introduce our Research resources and programs. The 3 new faculty who submitted the highest number of accurate answers in the shortest amount of time will receive professional travel awards in the amounts of $1500 (first place), $1000 (second place), and $500 (third place).
