Academic staff are librarians, lecturers, and lawyers.
They are academic advisors, broadcasters, senior scientists, and lab managers. They are managers of major institutional operations, indispensable experts on essential university services, and providers of highly specialized skills. The academic staff are essential to the successful operation of our institutions and are recruited with the same care and standard of excellence as faculty and top administrators. A large proportion of the academic staff has advanced degrees and special certification or licensing. This briefing book is intended to give a broad overview of the UW System academic staff, their terms of employment, and matters that concern them.
