Role of Faculty Affairs/Development Deans
• To assist faculty at all levels with successful career development in the areas of education, clinical care, research and administration.
Faculty Affairs /Development Associate Deans provide
• Individual consultations- career, work life• Conflict resolution• Faculty Round table sessions• Other faculty development opportunities-
leadership school, new faculty orientation• Mentoring• Focus groups• Exit Interviews
Faculty Contracts• MUSC utilizes annual Faculty Appointment Contracts
(FAC) – same format for faculty in each of the Colleges
• July 1 – June 30• For most new faculty, the offer letter serves as the
faculty contract through June 30 of the first year of employment.
• Thereafter, each faculty member will receive a FAC from their department/division on an annual basis.
Faculty Contracts• Typically prepared by departments and given to
faculty in May/June for review and signature.• Set forth the total anticipated compensation for the
faculty member and outline duties, responsibilities and goals for the coming year.
• If there are disputes between a faculty member and his/her supervisor regarding the FAC, the Faculty Handbook contains the FAC Dispute Resolution Process (Section 8.11).
Faculty Contracts• The FAC contains guidelines with respect to compensation tied to
faculty rank – this is referred to as “Part A” of the FAC compensation section:– Assistant Professor, $60,000– Associate Professor, $80,000– Professor, $90,000
• Rank compensation applies only to faculty with “regular” faculty appointments, not to faculty with “modified” or “special” faculty rank appointments.
• Any source of funding may be used for the rank compensation component of a faculty member’s salary.
• Any potential compensation that exceeds “rank compensation” is included in “Part B” of the FAC compensation section as “Additional Compensation”. This amount can vary from year to year.
Appointment, Promotion and Tenure
• Promotion and tenure are different decisions at MUSC
• Promotion: reviewed at department and college levels
• Tenure: reviewed at department, college, and university levels
• Separate criteria
Promotion
• Tenure track– Four tracks:
• Clinical Educator• Academic Clinician• Academic Investigator• Academic Educator
– Ranks are the same in the first three tracks
Promotion
• Modified tracks– Four tracks:
• Clinical Educator – most common• Academic Clinician – clinical researcher• Academic Investigator – basic scientist• Academic Educator – basic science educator
– Ranks are the same in all tracks
Promotion - Tips
• Know your track!– It’s possible to switch; discuss with Chair
• Develop a plan with your mentor*• Check in annually with Chair/Division Director• Know the grid requirements within your track
– You may be “successful” in many respects, but if you’re not achieving the specified objectives, you are not making progress toward promotion!
Tenure• Tenure ensures academic freedom, with the
expectation that the faculty member will continue to perform according to accepted standards subject to termination for cause, upon retirement, on account of financial exigency or the change or abolition of institutional programs.
• Tenure rests in the college or department of primary appointment only.
Tenure
• Either Associate or Full Professors• “Not based upon specific academic skills or
attainments. These qualifications are considered in the process of promotion in rank.”
• “the individual's long-term value to the University is the central issue”– Clearly less quantifiable, intentional
APT Summary• Know your current track
– Offer letter– Determined by Chair
• Be aware of criteria within track/rank• Be proactive in planning for advancement
– Mentors– Annual conversations/evaluations
• Tenure is qualitatively different from promotion
