Overview of Center and Institute Memberships
University Institutes and Centers, as well as school-based academic centers, may, at times, wish to establish a collaborative relationship with a researcher or scholar without offering a formal appointment. The titles available for such relationships are:
- Member
- Associated Faculty
- Affiliated Faculty
Each unit wishing to establish such relationships with investigators should outline the policies and procedures for making them and submit this proposal for approval to the supervising officer, either Dean or Provost. Ultimately, a copy of these policies and procedures should be filed with the Provost’s Office of Faculty Affairs. The UIC that establishes such a relationship with an individual initiates the dFac action.
In dFac, memberships are coded as "M".
