This section outlines UCD policies and procedures for appointment, reappointment, and nonreappointment to the Lecturer and Senior Lecturer series in Unit 18. Titles in the Lecturer and Senior Lecturer series are used to designate individuals who are appointed, according to established criteria, for specific terms to teach courses at any level. Refer also to UCD Appendix II-E, Appointment and Reappointment of Unit 18 Members.
Initial appointments are normally for one academic year or less.
No notice of termination is required for appointments with fixed ending dates. During the first six years of service at UCD, reappointments will normally be for one academic year or less. Service without salary is not included. A reappointment that commences after six or more years of service at UCD will be for a term of three academic years. Neither the percentage of time of the reappointment nor the specific teaching assignment need be constant for each quarter or semester during the academic year, but the aggregate workload for the year should match the appointment percentage.
