Supporting New Faculty and Staff

We create a culture of support through building connections and establishing relationships that assist with a seamless transition and create a sense of belonging at the university and in the surrounding communities.

Welcome to KU!

Relocating for a new career opportunity can be intimidating and time-consuming. There are thousands of details and considerations to manage depending on your particular situation, including finding housing, navigating an unfamiliar town, forming community connections, enrolling children in school, identifying service providers, and more.

At the University of Kansas, we recognize employment decisions are life-changing for both you and those close to you. In particular, a new career opportunity at KU may necessitate a job change for your spouse or partner. Dual Career Services provides resources and assistance to assist the spouse or partner of new faculty and executive leaders.

Relocation and Dual Career Partner Services provides resources and assistance to new prospective faculty and executive leaders. Our services focus on a People First model by creating a culture of support through building connections and establishing relationships to assist with a seamless transition, and to create a sense of belonging at the university and in the surrounding community.
