UCLA Faculty Handbook and Resource Guide - Section III
academic personnel
Academic freedom is essential to
teaching and research at UCLA. The University's policy on
academic freedom is based on a statement originally made by the
President of the University in 1934. In a certain sense, this
principle still stands as the official policy of the University
on academic freedom. The following quotes are excerpts:
"...Where it becomes
necessary, in performing this function of a university, to
consider political, social, or sectarian movements, they are
dissected and examined not taught and the conclusion
left ... to the logic of the facts....
"The University is
founded upon faith in intelligence and knowledge and it must
defend their free operation.... Its obligation is to see that
the conditions under which questions are examined are those
which give play to intellect rather than to passion.
Essentially the freedom of a university is the freedom of
competent persons in the classroom.... It therefore takes
great care in the appointment of its teachers; it must take
corresponding care with respect to others who wish to speak
in its name.
"The University respects
personal belief as the private concern of the individual. It
equally respects the constitutional rights of the citizen. It
insists only that its members, as individuals and as
citizens, shall likewise always respect and not
exploit, their University connection.
"The University of
California ... will not aid nor will it condone actions
contrary to the laws of the State. Its high function ... the
University will steadily continue to fulfill, serving the
people by providing facilities for investigation and teaching
free from domination by parties, sects, or selfish
interests...."
The Academic Freedom Committee of
the Academic Senate understands academic freedom to include the
following principles:
- Faculty are entitled to full
freedom in research and in the publication of the
results, subject to the adequate performance of their
other academic duties
- Faculty are entitled to
freedom in the classroom in discussing their subject, but
they should be careful not to introduce into their
teaching controversial material which has no relation to
their subject
- Faculty are citizens,
members of a learned profession and officers of an
educational institution. When they speak or write as
citizens, they should be free from institutional
censorship or discipline, but their position in the
community imposes special obligations. As scholars and
educational officers, they should remember that the
public may judge their profession and their institution
by their utterances. Therefore, they should at all times
exercise appropriate restraint, show respect for the
opinions of others and should not attempt to speak on
behalf of the University.
The Faculty Code of Conduct
contains a description of professional responsibilities, ethical
principles and types of unacceptable behavior. In summary,
faculty are entitled to the rights of free inquiry; to present
controversial material relevant to a course of instruction; to
freedom of expression; to participate in University governance;
and to peer review in matters of promotion, tenure and
discipline. The section on responsibilities includes ethical
principles regarding students, scholarship, the institution and
colleagues. These responsibilities are integral to all faculty
positions at the University; persons who fail to meet them may
face serious disciplinary sanctions. The complete Faculty Code of
Conduct is reprinted as Appendix I of this publication or access it
at
http://www.ucop.edu/acadadv/acadpers/apm/apm-015.pdf.
The University of California has
a strict policy prohibiting harassment, exploitation or
intimidation in all forms, including sexual. The University is
prepared to take whatever action may be needed to prevent,
correct and, if necessary, discipline behavior which violates
this policy. Sexual harassment is defined as unwelcome sexual
advances, requests for sexual favors and other verbal or physical
conduct of a sexual nature when:
(a) submission to such
conduct is made either explicitly or implicitly a term or
condition of instruction, employment or participation in
other University activity
(b) submission to or
rejection of such conduct by an individual is used as a basis
for evaluation in making academic or personnel decisions
affecting that individual, or
(c) such conduct has the
purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an
individual's performance or creating an intimidating, hostile
or offensive University environment.
Appointment and
Advancement
The University has a complex
review procedure to build and maintain its excellent faculty.
This review mechanism is designed to ensure that individuals are
judged by their colleagues in accordance with fair procedures
solely on the basis of professional qualifications in matters of
appointment, promotion and salary increases. Candidates for
appointment and advancement are evaluated on four main criteria:
teaching; research and creative work; professional competence and
activity; and University and public service. For a descriptive
statement of these criteria, see
Section 210-1 of the Academic Personnel Manual:
Instructions to Review and Appraisal Committees; for the complete
text of policies on review and general procedures which apply to
most faculty titles, see
Section 220-80. All academic titles and categories are
detailed in UCLAs policy and procedure manual, The CALL. The APM can be accessed at http://www.ucop.edu/acadadv/acadpers/apm
and The CALL can be accessed at http://www.apo.ucla.edu/call.
Academic Promotion The Process
The procedures through which
decisions on academic promotion are made are very clearly
defined. The following is a summary of the process by the Council
on Academic Personnel (CAP):
- Department informs
individuals eligible for promotion
- Department prepares the
dossier
- Whenever extramural
evaluations are to be requested, the faculty member is
invited to suggest names of possible referees. The
department will select some of these persons (and some
from its own list) from whom to solicit evaluations
- Department reviews the case
and submits the departmental recommendation to the Dean's
Office; it is then forwarded to the Academic Personnel
Office
- Dossier is forwarded to CAP,
which nominates an ad hoc review committee when
appropriate
- Review committee reviews the
case. The major function of the review committee is to
give a sustained and careful analysis of the candidate's
record, especially of the most recent and most
significant publications
- Review committee's final
report reaches CAP and the Dean or Provost. A report is
sent to the Dean, who makes a recommendation and sends it
to the Academic Personnel Office; the dossier is
forwarded to CAP
- CAP deliberates on the case
and makes its own recommendation
- Should there be disagreement
between the recommendations of CAP and the Dean or
Provost, procedures are established by which the matter
may be resolved; this may require discussions among the
parties involved
- The dossier is sent to the
Vice Chancellor for final action.
Faculty
Voting Rights
Bylaw 55 of the statewide
Academic Senate sets policies for faculty voting rights at the
departmental level. For the complete text of this bylaw, revised
in May 1995, see Appendix IV.
The quality of the UCLA faculty
is maintained primarily through an objective and thorough review
process for advancement or appointment. In support of this
process, the Academic Personnel Office serves as a resource on
policy interpretation, provides training workshops and
disseminates information regarding the appointment and
advancement of academic personnel. 3109 Murphy Hall,

teaching
UCLA faculty members
engage in research and the discovery of new knowledge and are
equally dedicated to disseminating their findings in the
classroom. Indeed, excellence in teaching is essential to
appointment or advancement and tenure is granted only with clear
evidence of teaching ability. Distinguished Teaching Awards are
among those most highly prized by UCLA professors.
The Teachers Guide provides an overview of
University policies, procedures and resources in reference to
undergraduate instruction. It also features useful tips and lists
many resources and services available on campus to support
instruction. The booklet is published by the Office of
Instructional Development, 60 Powell Library Building, (310)
825-9149.
In addition, the
University's Faculty Code of Conduct (Appendix I) contains language on the professional
rights and responsibilities of faculty regarding teaching.
Good teaching can be defined,
very simply, as activities which promote student learning.
Sources of information for evaluating effective teaching include
student ratings, self-reviews and peer evaluations. The
campuswide Evaluation of Instruction Program, (310) 825-6939, provides
and processes students' teaching evaluation forms. Classroom
videotaping is also available without charge to instructors for
self-improvement in conjunction with Faculty Consultation on Teaching. Teaching evaluation serves two main
purposes: to provide ideas to the instructor for improving
teaching and to be a source of information for such
administrative decisions as promotion and merit increases. For
more information, contact the Office of Instructional
Development, (310) 825-9149 or see Section IV.
Each year, the UCLA Alumni
Association presents Distinguished Teaching Awards to five
Academic Senate members. The highly prized awards are presented
at the annual Alumni Association Awards Ceremony and selection of
recipients is based on recommendations of the Academic Senate
Committee on Teaching (see Section II).
Nominations are solicited from
academic departments during the Fall Quarter. The Office of
Instructional Development also presents Distinguished Teaching
Awards to three non-Senate faculty members each year; all
non-Senate faculty who are nominated by their departments are
eligible. For more information, please call (310)
206-0523.
Success in training graduate
students means treating them with respect as junior colleagues.
Faculty are urged to take an interest in their professional
development, encouraging them to publish, to present papers, to
participate in student government or on key committees. Include
funds for support of research assistants in your grant proposals
and meet regularly with your graduate student teaching
assistants. If you have questions about campuswide policies
affecting graduate students, call the Graduate Division at (310)
206-6086.
Prior to a graduate student's
advancement to candidacy for the doctoral degree, a dissertation
committee is formed, consisting of at least five UCLA Academic
Senate faculty members. The committee, appointed by the Dean of
the Graduate Division on the recommendation of the department or
program chair, is responsible for ensuring that University and
department requirements for the advancement to candidacy are met
through the supervision of both written and oral examinations.
Effective
Spring 2004, UCLA has a campuswide site license from iParadigms, inventor
of “Turnitin.com”, to assist faculty
in the detection of plagiarism. Students electronically submit
assignments, papers or examinations for comparison with other student work
product and a vast array of publicly-available documents on the Internet,
including encyclopedias, journals, books to produce an “Originality
Report.” Originality Reports are returned to the instructor, permitting
the instructor to make the judgment whether to investigate a suspected
partially or completely unoriginal student assignment further with the
student involved or to refer the matter to the Office of the Dean of
Students. In addition, Turnitin.com retains a copy of each submitted
student assignment to permit comparison to future student assignments.
An automatic
interface to the Turnitin.com service is now provided on each instructor’s
MyUCLA page (http://my.ucla.edu),
next to the icons for the Electronic Gradebook and for real-time Course
Rosters. The use of the Turnitin.com service is at the discretion of the
course instructor, whether it is to be a course requirement for all
enrolled students or it is used as an ad hoc check of an individual
suspicious student assignment.
Academic
Senate Regulation A-306C, dealing with cheating and plagiarism states:
The final grade in a
course shall be based upon the instructor's evaluation of the student's
achievement in the course. When on an examination or other work submitted by
the student, the student is suspected of having engaged in plagiarism or
otherwise having cheated, the suspected infraction is to be reported to the
appropriate administrative officer of the University [usually the Dean of
Students] for consideration of disciplinary proceedings against the student.
Until such proceedings, if any, have been completed, the grade DR (Deferred
Report) shall be assigned for that course. If in such disciplinary
proceedings it is determined that the student did engage in plagiarism or
otherwise cheat, the Administrative Officer, in addition to imposing any
discipline, shall report back to the instructor of the course involved --
the nature of the plagiarism or cheating. In light of that report, the
instructor may replace the grade DR with a final grade that reflects an
evaluation of that which may fairly be designated as the student's own
achievement in the course as distinguished from any achievement that
resulted from plagiarism or cheating.
If you
determine to issue a grade of DR, which you will later replace with a
final course grade, you must write a letter to the Dean of Students, with
copies to the student and the Dean of the school or college, stating your
reasons for assigning the DR. If the basis of the allegation is the
“Originality Report” provided by
Turnitin.com, a copy of that report should also be included. The Dean
of Students will inform you as to the outcome of the investigation.
Obviously,
prevention of
cheating and plagiarism is much to be preferred. For a detailed discussion
of strategies that faculty may use in preventing such behavior, see the
Teacher's
Guide
published by the Office of Instructional Development.
Turnitin.com also has useful information to provide students about
what actions constitute plagiarism, the rules of citation, etc.
The policy
regarding plagiarism, student copyright, and the use of Turnitin.com is
now available in the Official Notices section of the UCLA Schedule of
Classes at
http://www.registrar.ucla.edu/soc/notices.htm#AnchorPlag.
.In the event
of suspected cheating or plagiarism, consult the Office of the Dean of
Students. 1206 Murphy Hall,

research
As one of the largest research
universities in the world, UCLA has more than 5,000 funded
programs in progress at any given time. The University encourages
a broad spectrum of research and creative activity of the highest
quality, from basic to applied, across the full range of academic
disciplines. Graduate students, selected as research assistants
based on achievement and promise, assist faculty with scholarly
research. Faculty members are evaluated in part on their
abilities to demonstrate creative and productive work through
published research and/or creative activities.
One focus of UCLA's research
efforts is a group of Organized Research Units (ORUs) which
provide an interdisciplinary approach to the search for
knowledge. ORUs are study centers and research institutes,
established by The Regents, which consist of faculty and students
from various departments who engage in continuing research of
particular subjects. ORUs do not offer courses of instruction or
degrees, although several work in conjunction with
Interdepartmental Instruction Programs (IDPs) which lead to
bachelor's and/or advanced degrees.
UCLA's ORUs fall into six major
categories: Health Sciences, Life Sciences, Physical Sciences and
Engineering, Social Sciences, International Studies & Overseas Programs and Arts
& Humanities. Within each
division, there are also representative groups and programs
which, although not formally established as ORUs, are
nevertheless doing important research in their respective areas.
For a full listing of UCLA's ORUs, see Appendix
V.
The Vice Chancellor for Research is responsible for
providing leadership over all areas of current and planned research conducted by
UCLA faculty. The Vice Chancellor is responsible for the Office of Research
Administration, which includes all activities related to research from contracts
and grants to patents and intellectual property.
See Section IV.
The information provided here
concerns the rights and responsibilities which apply to faculty in the practice
of their research. If you have questions concerning the application of any of
the policies and procedures referred to in this section, or would like to see
copies of the referenced materials, call the Office of Research
Administration at (310) 825-4031.
The University endeavors to
provide space, funds and facilities for the research programs of
faculty. Independent of extramural sources, funds are made
available through departments, equivalent units, organized
research units, the Senate Committee on Research or other
intramural funding sources.
The Academic Senate Council on
Research/Faculty Grants Program funds individual faculty research
projects, provides airfare support to eligible faculty presenting
research findings at conferences and provides intercampus travel
support for Senate members, all subject to an application
approval process. The Council also formulates and advises on
issues pertaining to University research policy. For more
information, call (310) 825-3853 or see Section II.
All contracts,
grants and gifts are subject to conditions, restrictions and review procedures
established by the Chancellor, in conformance with University wide policies and
procedures. UCLA Policy 910,
Management of
Sponsored Projects,
describes the responsibilities of principal investigators, Department Chairs,
Deans and central administrative units for the management of projects supported
by contract and grant funds. UCLA Policy 921,
Accepting Private
Funds in Support of Specific Research Projects, sets forth the University's
definition of grants, contracts and gifts. Both are included in the UCLA
Administrative Policies and Procedures Manual.
An essential part of academic
freedom is that the investigator be free to disseminate the
results of research. The Academic Senate has affirmed the right
of faculty members to make public the findings of their research,
orally or in writing, free from censorship or restraint.
University policy precludes the acceptance of research grants or
contracts in which the principal investigator's rights to full
disclosure of research findings are abridged.
The University requires that all research,
including classroom research, involving human subjects be
reviewed by the UCLA Human Subjects Protection Committee. Refer
to UCLA Policy 1120, Protection of Human Subjects, in the UCLA Policy Manual. See Section
IV.
University policy specifies common procedures
to assure the continued maintenance of high standards of animal
care and use within the University. For more information, refer
to the University Policy on the Use of Animals in Research and
Teaching.
University policy prohibits the
use of University facilities for work conducted for the benefit
of an outside organization, whether profit-making or not, unless
there is a written agreement between the University and the
sponsor which sets forth the conditions under which the work is
to be conducted. In general, the University should not provide
outside organizations with goods or services that are readily
available from industrial or commercial sources. For more
information, see Appendix VII:
Policy on the Requirement to Submit Proposals and to Receive
Awards for Grants and Contracts Through the University.
The opportunity for faculty to
engage in consulting and professional activities outside the
University is a privilege long recognized as beneficial to both
the individual and to the University. These activities contribute
to the enrichment of teaching, extend the bounds of research and
creative activity and share faculty expertise beyond the academic
and University communities.
The University's Policy on
Outside Professional Activities of Faculty Members states that
faculty are expected to contribute to their professions and to
the community and that the same standards of performance should
be applied to their outside professional activities as to any
other areas of their academic endeavors. The one restriction is
that these activities do not interfere with the faculty member's
primary responsibilities to the University. For the full text of
the policy, see
Section 025
of the Academic Personnel Manual. The APM can be accessed at http://www.ucop.edu/acadadv/acadpers/apm/.
Specialized policies address a range of issues related to
faculty obligations and duties, the acceptance or offering of gifts,
participating in decisions involving intellectual property in which individuals
have an ownership interest, the disclosure of financial interests in private
(non-governmental) sponsors of research, or financial interests related to
research supported by certain federal agencies or University of California
managed programs. Many of these policies are derived from State of California
law. Others reflect federal regulations. See UCLA Policy 150 at
http://www.adminvc.ucla.edu/appm.
Disclosures of personal financial interests related to
extramural funds must be completed in conjunction with proposals submitted for
research support and acceptance of certain gifts. A faculty committee reviews
the positive disclosures to determine whether those financial interests
constitute conflicts of interest. If the Committee determines that conflicts of
interest exist, they will make recommendations about proposed action to reduce,
eliminate, or manage those conflicts of interest to the Vice Chancellor for
Research, to whom they are advisory. See UCLA Procedures 921.1 and 921.2 at
http://www.adminvc.ucla.edu/appm.
All employees are required to sign an agreement
mandating that they disclose to the University all patentable or potentially
patentable inventions they develop. Disclosure is required when the inventions
arise within the individual’s scope of employment whether or not University
facilities or resources were used. After disclosure, the interests of the
University are determined and a decision made as to whether patent rights will
be assigned to the University or released to the inventor. If the University
successfully licenses an invention to industry for commercialization, revenues
are shared with inventors according to the University's Patent Policy
(see Appendix VI).
Copyrights are usually owned by the creator. In certain circumstances when
copyrightable work is part of the scope of work under sponsored research, the
ownership may vest in the University.
Consult the Office of Intellectual Property Administration, (310)
794-0558, for assistance with the disclosure process, details about
patenting and licensing inventions, questions about royalties, equity, or
assistance in the interpretation of the University's patent and copyright
policies.
Since U.S. copyright law protects
against unauthorized reproduction of copyrighted materials and
the law directly impinges upon the activities of faculty as
teachers and scholars, it is important that faculty members be
aware of the law and acquaint themselves with the University's
Policy and Guidelines for Reproduction of Copyrighted Materials
for Teaching and Research.
A major limitation on the
copyright owner's exclusive rights is the doctrine of "fair
use," which permits certain limited copying for educational
or research purposes without the permission of the owner. Under
the "fair use" interpretation of the Copyright Act of
1976, you are permitted to photocopy and distribute portions of
copyrighted works for educational use without securing permission
from the owner or paying royalties only if certain conditions
are met for "fair use." Because the law
itself is not sufficiently clear and specific in defining "fair use," the
University of California has agreed to abide by the provisions of the "Agreement
on Guidelines for Classroom Copying in Not-for-Profit Educational Institutions,"
which are included as Appendix 1 to the University's Policy and Guidelines for
Reproduction of Copyrighted Materials for Teaching and Research found online at
http://www.ucop.edu/ucophome/uwnews/copyrep.html.
service
Public service is the third of
UCLA's basic missions, interwoven with teaching and research. A
public university has a particular responsibility to respond to
public as well as scholarly concerns. UCLA's service-oriented
activities are constantly updated, new programs are introduced
and old ones phased out as the needs of the community and society
change. Such programs present a variety of challenging
opportunities for faculty, while students are offered direct
experience in their fields and valuable services are performed
for the community.
Some of the most visible
contributions to the community have been made in the health
sciences. The UCLA Medical Plaza offers outpatient services in
more than 80 specialty clinics and UCLA health care providers
staff several medical and dental clinics situated in low-income
areas of the city. In other fields,
UCLA
Extension, (310)
825-2362, offers lifelong learning for more than
70,000 adult students each year and UCLA
Alumni Association, (310)
825-2586, volunteers engage in a broad array of community
activities ranging from lobbying in Sacramento to painting houses
for the elderly to teaching literacy.
Many members of the faculty serve
on local, state and national government boards and service
agencies. They testify frequently at legislative hearings,
provide consulting services and share their expertise with
committees of the federal government.
From time to time, faculty may be asked to assist the news
media in their coverage of current events and trends relating to your research
or areas in which your expertise can lend perspective.
The UCLA Office of
Media Relations coordinates all news media inquiries,
arranging interviews between faculty experts and the media which may take place
over the telephone, on campus, at a local broadcast studio or even
electronically. Media
relations staff
can help faculty members prepare for the interview.
This office also generates stories in the media about
faculty accomplishments and University achievements. Faculty are encouraged to
keep your media
relation's representative
informed of significant research developments, new teaching methods, national
and international awards or honors, or any suggestions you may have for feature
stories about campus personalities or events. Please
call the Office of Media Relations at
(310) 825-2585
for assistance with media
relations involvement or to locate the media relations representative from your
professional school or the College of Letters and Science.
In keeping with the University's
tradition of shared governance, faculty routinely participate in
campus decision-making through service on departmental,
administrative and Academic Senate committees. Academic
departments usually have standing faculty committees to deal with
curriculum, academic personnel decisions, student affairs and
other pertinent issues. Administrative committees, usually
appointed by a senior administrator, address non-academic issues
that concern the entire campus community such as safety,
buildings and grounds and distribution of student fees. Service
on any of these committees would be beneficial for junior faculty
to meet their senior colleagues and begin a service record.
Academic Senate committees
establish academic policy and advise senior administrators on a
variety of campuswide issues such as budget, faculty hiring and
welfare, establishment and disestablishment of academic programs
and capital projects. For a full list of Senate
committees, see Section II or call the
Senate office at (310) 825-3851.
faculty benefits
University of California faculty
members enjoy a broad range of benefits, some of which apply to
all employees and some which are unique to faculty. The
paragraphs below deal with the special situations of faculty; for
information on those benefits common to all UC employees, such as
health insurance, vision and dental care, life insurance and
retirement plans, call Campus Human Resources at (310) 794-0830.
Academic-Year faculty serve for a
nine-month period, but salary payment is spread over 12 months in
a fiscal year beginning July 1. Fiscal-Year faculty serve year
round. Paychecks are distributed the first working day of the
month and may be sent to your academic department or directly to
your bank account via electronic transfer.
UC faculty do not accrue sick
leave. In general, being a professional means you have great
discretion in managing your time and should be able to balance
your personal needs with your teaching and research obligations.
Absences due to short-term illnesses can usually be covered
through consultation with the Department Chair; leaves for major
illness are arranged on an individual basis.
Fiscal-Year faculty accrue
vacation leave at the rate of two days per month. Consult with
your Department Chair for scheduling.
Female faculty are eligible for
up to six weeks of childbearing leave (see
Section 760 of the Academic Personnel Manual).
Parents of either gender may request up to one year's parental
leave without pay for the purpose of caring for a child.
For every quarter you work at
least 50 percent time, you accrue credit toward sabbatical leave.
Faculty are eligible to take one quarter's sabbatical leave at
full pay after nine quarters of qualifying service, or a leave at
fractional pay after only six quarters of qualifying service.
Many combinations of qualifying service, number of quarters on
sabbatical and percentages of salary are possible. For details on
sabbatical leave, see the accompanying charts or refer to
Section 740
of the Academic Personnel Manual.
