Orientation

You have questions. BU has answers.

If you are a new employee working at least 50 percent of a full-time schedule with an assignment duration of at least 9 months, you will be scheduled for a New Employee orientation session that covers benefits, resources available to you, and campus safety, as well as Boston University’s rich history and heritage.

Faculty members and researchers are scheduled by your department.
Regular staff hires are scheduled by Human Resources.

When you accepted your offer of employment, Human Resources or your department would have specified the date and time of your orientation session.

Orientation is hosted by Human Resources and generally held virtually via Zoom on Mondays at 9:00 a.m.
You must be scheduled to attend. We may not be able to accommodate unscheduled attendees.

A few days before your session you will be sent an email with a link to your online session and instructions for using Zoom. Please review it carefully.

If you have questions about orientation or you’re unable to attend your session as scheduled, please contact Human Resources as soon as possible at 617-353-2380 to reschedule.
