A Message from the Vice President

Welcome to the website for the Division of Human Resources.

On this site you will find information related to all types of employment, including faculty and staff, full-time and part-time, continuing and temporary.

I also encourage you to check out the Training and Development section and browse our course catalog, which describes the various training and professional development opportunities available to all employees.

The division of Human Resources is committed to Excellence in Action by attracting, retaining and developing a community of talented and diverse individuals as part of our workforce.
