UVA Faculty Partners
The UVA Dual Career Program supports UVA faculty recruitment and retention
We assist prospective and current UVA faculty partners by supporting their efforts to build careers and make connections in the Charlottesville area.
- Partners of Prospective and Newly Hired Faculty Members
-
The Dual Career Program (DCP) works with partners of UVA faculty applicants who are seeking employment, beginning with the invitation to Grounds for the faculty interview. We offer confidentiality to individuals who seek an initial dual career consultation early in the application process and will not disclose your request to the faculty department without your consent.
We continue to provide services throughout the faculty application process, onboarding, and the transition to the Charlottesville community. DCP Services are typically provided for up to one year after relocation by the faculty partner.
- Partners of Current Faculty Members (Hired more than 1 year ago)
-
The DCP serves as a resource to UVA departments that are seeking to retain faculty members. We work in consultation with the faculty member’s department chair and dean’s office to customize services to support faculty partners.
Requests for DCP services associated with a retention matter must be initiated by a UVA associate dean's office or Dean. Faculty members should consult with their department chair or associate dean to initiate a request for services.

If you are contacted by a faculty member who is requesting services on behalf of their partner and you would like the DCP to provide services, please have your associate dean/dean complete the referral form below to initiate services.
If your faculty member started their position within the last year, a referral is not needed. They may request services above.
If you have questions, please contact the DCP by email.
