This document describes central principles associated with and provides guidance for, the transfer of a faculty member between academic units. Faculty transfer refers to the relocation of a faculty member from one academic unit to a different academic unit, upon the voluntary request of the faculty member. A formal transfer process can allow for uninterrupted employment, and the maintenance of employment rights, privileges and responsibilities. Faculty transfers resulting from closure of an academic unit, whether for financial exigency or organizational restructuring, are addressed in University of Nebraska Board of Regents Bylaws 4.7.1, 4.11, and 4.12. | This document describes central principles associated with and provides guidance for, the transfer of a faculty member between academic units.
