Faculty Handbook: Information and Resources for SPHHS Faculty

Preface

This handbook is an evolving guide for faculty in the School of Public Health and Health Sciences (SPHHS) that outlines the current general policies and procedures for the school, along with those for the university, that the leadership team considers to be useful for on-boarding new members. As with any such document, some policies and procedures will be updated during the academic year. If upon reading it you have any questions or factual errors, please send us an email at deansiegariz [at] umass [dot] edu and we will do our best to obtain clarification for you. This handbook and other documents provided to you are made in the spirit of being transparent, consistent, and striving for efficiency in the work that we do. I welcome you to UMass and the SPHHS team.

Sincerely,

Anna Maria Siega-Riz, Ph.D., Dean
