The faculty and staff members that make up the UNC Department of Psychiatry are our greatest asset. Given the pressures of daily demands and the expansive practice locations for Department colleagues, a unified community and communication system is essential to keep faculty and staff engaged and informed. To that end, the Department of Psychiatry is committed to helping its faculty members achieve and exceed their career goals by offering guidance, support, and opportunities for:

  • Career development and networking;
  • Faculty mentoring;
  • Personal wellness and self care;
  • Promotions and tenure;
  • Teaching and leadership seminars; and
  • Research training and funding.
