RE: Faculty Development Program Awards
I am pleased to announce that the Faculty Development Program will provide awards
beginning in Summer 2002 and continuing through the 2002-2003 academic year.
The purpose of these awards is to encourage the scholarly attainment by faculty
members whose heavy involvement in University and community service has significantly
impeded or has the potential to impede their progress in research or other creative
activity. One form of service overload is experienced by many under-represented
faculty members who are sought out for extensive committee service and/or advising.
Another form of service overload may result from service on committees that require
unusually heavy commitments of time.
The application instructions and cover sheet will be posted on November 1, 2001, on
the Vice Provost-Academic Personnel web site at:
http://academicpersonnel.ucdavis.edu/
While all faculty are eligible for awards, priority is given to assistant professors
with worthy proposals and demonstrable need.
The Program involves several kinds of awards. Recipients of the Quarter-Long Awards
will be relieved of teaching and service responsibilities for a period of one
academic quarter (Fall 2002 or Winter or Spring 2003). Recipients of the Summer
Awards (academic-year appointees only) will receive one month of supplemental salary
for Summer 2002. Recipients will also receive $1,000 for supplies and expenses
associated with their research.
The eligibility criteria, conditions of the awards, and application procedures are
fully described at the web site above. Please note that applications and supporting
materials for all awards must be received by the dean of your college/school/division
by December 7, 2001. Deans' offices should transmit the applications and supporting
material to the Office of the Provost by January 11, 2002. Questions concerning the
Faculty Development Program should be directed to Sarah Gray, Assistant Vice Provost
(752-9984 or sdgray@ucdavis.edu).
