Applications for Faculty Development Leave by UTIA faculty are generally governed by the rules and process described in the Faculty Development Leave section of UTK’s Faculty Affairs Hub. There are two key differences, though. The first is that UTIA does not currently impose a once-per-year deadline on applications and UTIA’s Faculty Affairs office will create Faculty Development Leave cases in Interfolio (unlike UTK, which asks departments to create the cases). Any faculty member considering applying for Faculty Development Leave should consult the guidelines and their Department Head or School Director, who can request that an Interfolio case be created. Please contact Chris Clark (cdclark@utk.edu) if you have any questions about Faculty Development Leave or the application and approval process.
