<p style="margin-bottom:15px;max-width:70em !important;">50% teaching: usually 4 - 5 courses per year. For graduate clinical, one clinical group is equal to <strong>10</strong> students assigned to preceptors.<br />

<li>Submission of a grant</li>
    <li>The work of the College of Nursing (CON) is accomplished through the committed and collaborative activities of its Faculty which are based on the professional model and directed toward achievement of the College of Nursing mission, goals, and strategic plan.
<li>Substantial grant or practice funding</li>
          <ol style="margin-bottom:15px;max-width:64em !important;">
<li>Special service, e.g., special university, community, or CON task force</li>
              <li>The work of the CON faculty includes teaching, scholarship, service, and practice as defined in the Standards for Promotion and Tenure for Academic Rank (Appendix A) or in the Standards for Promotion for Clinical Rank (Appendix A2).</li>
<li>Cross campus course coordination or area coordinator </li>
          </ol>
<li>Developing a new course</li>
    </li>
<li>Amount of scholarship, service, or funded practice<br /><br />Note: Approximate number of students in a master’s course is 30 and a doctoral course is 15 before assigning a GA for assistance, generating a new section, or assigning additional faculty to assist.</li>
    <li>Consistent with the Promotion and Tenure documents faculty select their preferred roles based on rank. Work allocation is differentiated based on faculty role. </li>
    <li>Faculty are encouraged, in collaboration with their supervisor, to focus their professional development in two areas as consistent with the Promotion and Tenure Guidelines.</li>
    <li>The work of the CON faculty will fulfill the educational mission aligned with existing resources.</li>
    <li>The CON supports all forms of scholarship: research, practice/service and teaching scholarship defined as: generating new knowledge, translating knowledge, and disseminating knowledge to the professional community and the public.</li>
    <li>These guidelines are flexible and should be interpreted broadly, as the needs of individual faculty members, specific courses and projects, and those of the College will vary.  The goal of this document is to provide a framework within which faculty members, their assistant deans, and associate deans and program directors collaborate to meet the College’s mission, support the strategic plan, and foster individual faculty growth, development, productivity, and success. Effort allocation guidelines are designed to promote the best faculty effectiveness available to meet the mission, goals and strategic directions of the College of Nursing.</li>
    <li>Faculty effort is communicated in relation to percentage of FTE. The full-time equivalent (FTE) percentage makes work assignments comparable across various contexts. An FTE of 1.0 means that the person is a full-time faculty member, while an FTE of 0.5 signals that the faculty member is only half-time or that a particular assignment will require half time work.</li>

<p style="margin-bottom:15px;max-width:70em !important;">Professional service is important to the university and community.  Faculty are asked to participate in service activities at about 20% of FTE. As rank progresses from assistant, associate, to full professor, the level of service changes; for example, one progresses from a task force within the College to higher level University service and from a committee member to committee chair.</p>
