Course information
The University wants all new staff to feel welcome and to settle into their post in the University as quickly as possible. The Induction session will provide key information you need to adapt to life in St Andrews and get your University career off to a good start.
The course is strongly recommended as it provides an opportunity for mixed groups of recently appointed staff to find out more about the University.
The programme includes:
- Welcome from the Principal & Vice-Chancellor
- Structure of the University
- Introduction to Teaching and Research & Professional Services
- The Student Experience
Lunch will be provided.
All new staff should also enrol on New Staff Essentials. This eLearning module provides information on the University, what our priorities are, our strategy, policies and what services we provide. All new staff are encouraged to participate in both Induction For All New Staff and New Staff Essentials as soon as possible after taking up employment.
