Abstract
ABSTRACTResearch suggests new health care professional faculty members benefit from assistance and support in the transition from the clinic to academia; however, few recent studies have been conducted to determine if this is true for occupational therapy. This descriptive pilot study explores the barriers that may face new occupational therapy faculty members and suggests strategies to assist new faculty members in their transition to academia. Through an electronic survey, identified barriers, challenges, and potential resolutions for the transitioning of new faculty members are highlighted. The results suggest the need for enhanced preparations for a career in academia; as well as new faculty member orientations that include instruction on professional development, classroom management, academic culture, scholarship, and mentoring.
