ACD 301: Workloads

Purpose

To describe the distribution of work among faculty members

Source

Provost of the University

Applicability

Faculty

Academic professionals

Policy

All classes and schedules are arranged and administered under the authority of the dean and the provost of the university. In assigning faculty member/academic professional duties, the colleges and academic units should recognize that laboratory development and supervision, direction of student research and independent study, administrative assignments, approved research, and curatorial service in the interest of the university are legitimate partial equivalents of class instruction and legitimate demands upon a faculty member’s/academic professional’s time. University service such as committee assignments and advisement are a normal component of university work above and beyond regular teaching and research loads. Faculty/academic professional workloads will be addressed in conjunction with the annual review process between individual faculty members/academic professionals and administrator(s) of their unit(s) and will be confirmed in writing by the administrator(s) of the academic unit(s).
