PPM policies under review

Proposed Revisions to Policy and Procedure Manual 230-20, Appointment of Academic Personnel, and Policy and Procedure Manual 230-28, Academic Advancements and Reappointments: Addition of Supplement III - Guidelines for the Professor of Clinical X (Pharmacy) Series

EVC Subramani is pleased to submit for formal campus review the proposed new supplement to UCSD Policy and Procedure Manual (PPM) 230-20, Appointment of Academic Personnel, and PPM 230-28, Academic Advancements and Reappointments: Supplement III, Guidelines for the Professor of Clinical X (Pharmacy) Series.

Two drafts of the proposed Supplement III are available. The first version includes only the new draft supplement language; the second is a tracked version that indicates the differences between the proposed Supplement III and the existing Supplement II, Guidelines for the Professor X (e.g., Medicine) Series.

The proposed new supplement is intended to provide additional detailed information on the Professor of Clinical X (Pharmacy) series in the Skaggs School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences (SSPPS). The draft supplement provides guidelines to assist in the evaluation of the appropriateness of appointment to and advancement within the Clinical X (Pharmacy) series in SSPPS. As is the case with the existing Supplement II, the proposed supplement would appear as an addition to both PPM 230-20 and PPM 230-28.

If you have any comments or questions regarding the proposed new supplement to PPM 230-20 and PPM 230-28, please contact Kelly Lindlar, director of Academic Policy Development, Academic Personnel Services, at klindlar@ucsd.edu no later than May 20, 2013.
