Guidelines for New Professional Track Faculty Titles - 2015

Guidelines for New Professional Track (PTK) Faculty Titles

January 29, 2015

The Guidelines for New Professional Track Faculty Titles have been compiled for the transition to the new titles for Professional Track (PTK) faculty. The new titles provide a more unified system for appointing PTK faculty, and provides promotion opportunities for certain types of appointments where there had been none.

For individual position numbers, units may request in eTerp2 a title change to the current position number if it is a renewal/reappointment or request a new position number if the position is new/initial using the appropriate new faculty titles. For all Lecturer positions or if a position is less than 50% FTE, units should use the appropriate Pooled Position Number.

Please contact Faculty Affairs if you have any questions about this important improvement in how the institution engages PTK faculty.
