Purpose
Establishes criteria for appointment as graduate faculty associate for the College of Nursing (CON) as described in the University of Nebraska Graduate College Bylaws and Policies.
Scope
Applies to all faculty, volunteer faculty, and adjunct faculty.
Policy
Graduate faculty associate status is primarily designed to provide an opportunity for faculty to contribute towards the education of graduate students in their discipline, while they simultaneously develop the credentials to become eligible for graduate faculty status. In addition, graduate faculty associate status is appropriate for faculty whose professional background or assigned instructional responsibilities are such that their contribution towards graduate education is highly valued, but they are otherwise not likely to seek or be eligible for graduate faculty status.
A faculty member nominated as a graduate faculty associate must meet these criteria:
- hold the rank of assistant professor, clinical assistant professor, or corresponding adjunct faculty rank or above
- hold the terminal degree normally accepted for academic employment in the discipline
