Navigating Stony Brook University

Set Yourself Up for Success at Stony Brook

Throughout the year, we host a series of sessions, workshops and programs to support you as you adjust to our university culture and begin to take advantage of everything Stony Brook has to offer. 

These sessions are designed to expand on topics covered during new faculty orientation.

In addition to these sessions, we encourage you to participate in other events hosted by your academic unit and by other parts of the university. Please reach out if you have questions or suggestions for future sessions.

We invite you to participate in as many as you can, and look forward to seeing you.
