B : Appointment of Research Faculty Policy and Procedures Definitions Department Chair includes Program/Center Director Dean includes EOS Director Department Committee includes Program/Center Committee if relevant College includes EOS and Graduate School College Committee includes EOS Committee Research Faculty Definition Research faculty are those who undertake research/scholarship and service, and have research as their principal assignment. Research faculty are typically supported by a variety of mechanisms (internal and external sources); however, the majority of salary support is derived from grant and contract funds. Appointments are made at three faculty levels: research assistant professor, research associate professor, research professor. Appointment Procedure Affirmative Action policies are followed in appointing research faculty. Unless the person to be appointed is either a prominent scientist who is named in an external grant or contract or is already an employee of the University, advertising and competitive selection is required. Research Faculty appointments may be full-time or part-time in a department/center/institute/school. Appointment requires a recommendation from the faculty and chair in that department/unit in accordance with appropriate by-laws and the concurrence of the appropriate dean(s). Appointment requires approval by the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs. When recommending an appointment, recommendations by the appropriate college dean(s) should be forwarded to the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs. Research assistant professor initial appointments are made for 1 year. Initial appointments for research associate and research professors are made for 1-3 years. Appointments are renewable for 1-3 years for research assistant professors and may be renewed up to 5 years for research associate professors and research professors. Renewal and continuation of appointment is contingent upon funding and/or the research needs, direction and priorities of the college; this shall be articulated in the initial appointment letter and any subsequent renewals. Criteria The three ranks of research assistant professor, research associate professor, and research professor parallel their tenure-track counterparts. However, research and service represent the expectations of the candidate. A research assistant professor shall have completed terminal degree appropriate to his/her field and shall have demonstrated success in carrying out their own externally funded research, be capable of advising graduate students, show clear evidence of his/her ability to conceive and perform independent research and to obtain external funding from his/her research, and may provide some service to the university and profession. A research associate professor shall have completed terminal degree, had several years of successful research experience, demonstrating a trajectory toward a national reputation, and have shown clear evidence of his/her ability to conceive and perform independent research and to obtain external funding for his/her research, supported and advised graduate students, and may provide some service to the university and profession. A research professor shall have a background of successful externally funded research, marked by the perspective of maturity and demonstrating a trajectory toward a national/international reputation in the field. The candidate will have supported and advised graduate students to completion of their degree, and provide some service to the university and profession. Responsibilities and Privileges Research faculty may fulfill some teaching and/or service responsibilities. However, research is to remain the principal duty of the faculty member. Research faculty may serve as advisors of graduate student research and may serve on undergraduate and graduate thesis committees. Research faculty appointed at 75% or above are eligible for benefits in keeping with established Board of Trustee policy. In the event a research faculty members salary support drops below 75%, the research faculty member will retain an operating title equivalent to their former appointment as a benefits eligible faculty member and will retain the ability to apply for grants within the college with the approval of dean. Research faculty are eligible for service in the Faculty Senate. Research faculty are not eligible for sabbatical leave or tenure. Voting rights of research faculty within a department or program are determined by the appropriate by-laws and policies. Research faculty otherwise have ordinary faculty privileges (library, parking, etc.). Within the limits of available space and priorities, the colleges will strive to allocate appropriate office and/or research support space to research faculty members. Annual written reviews are prepared by the department chairperson or institute director. The responsible person will be identified in the appointment letter.
