Special Faculty Assignments

Search COE Business Services Wiki

See HOP 2-2210: Faculty Leaves and Special Faculty Assignments.

A limited number of Special Faculty Assignments is allocated to each college or school by the Provost's Office. A request for a Special Faculty Assignment is initiated by the department chair or Dean, and must be approved by the department chair, Dean, and Provost's Office. Each request must be accompanied by a full description of the duties of the faculty member while on Special Faculty Assignment.

Special Faculty Assignments do not require submission of a Faculty Request for Leave form. The faculty member remains on the instructional budget during their special assignment period.

Periods during which a faculty member with the academic rank of Instructor or Assistant Professor receives one of these assignments will count as part of the probationary period related to the acquisition of tenure.
