Appointed Graduate Faculty
To be appointed to the graduate faculty, an individual must be nominated according to the graduate faculty appointment policy by their dean to the Committee on Graduate Programs. Nominations are then sent to the Provost who in turn makes the appointment. Candidates must have an earned terminal degree (or ABD with satisfactory progress) in the discipline or disciplines of the graduate courses being taught or must otherwise meet accreditation guidelines. It is expected that the candidate meet the “18 hours in a field” guideline and/or have clinical and/or unique qualifications. They must also demonstrate successful teaching in the discipline, demonstrate scholarly activity at the graduate level, or show progress towards scholarly activity at the graduate level, and they must hold the University rank of Assistant Professor, or higher, or the title of administrative faculty in the Graduate Programs of Nurse Anesthesia.
Contributing Graduate Faculty
Full-time, adjunct, and/or part-time faculty, called contributing graduate faculty, may be invited or assigned to teach graduate courses on a semester-by-semester basis. The invitation or assignment is made by the dean of the school and a school-based faculty committee, and the process is reviewed by the Committee on Graduate programs.
