Effective July 2024, faculty holding clinical non-salaried, clinical salaried, and affiliate titles will no longer undergo promotion reviews by the Provost. Instead, rank changes will be determined at the local College level as part of the annual reappointment process.
For clinical and affiliate appointees receiving compensation from the University of Washington, salary adjustments may occur in conjunction with reappointment. The traditional 10% salary increase previously associated with successful promotions will still be available when a change in rank occurs during reappointment.
- Faculty holding a professorial position at another academic institution should have their rank adjusted to align with that institution.
- Faculty not holding a professorial position elsewhere will have their rank determined by the department in accordance with the qualifications outlined in UW Faculty Code Section 24-34.
If a rank adjustment is necessary, the change should be submitted to the College via Interfolio AND noted as part of the annual reappointment process. The case and the spreadsheet will be due to the College on the same date.
For the Interfolio case, create the case using the Affiliate/Clinical Title Change template and assigning to the appropriate candidate. Once the case is created:
- Either send the case to the candidate to upload a current CV OR do not include the candidate and upload the CV on their behalf.
- Edit the case steps to add the department chair/director or Interfolio administrator to step 1 and the appropriate Divisional Dean to step 3.
- Upload a chair/director letter and send the case forward to the College for review.
- Ensure that the title change is reflected in the annual reappointment spreadsheet that is submitted to the College.
If you need assistance with the Interfolio process, please review the Interfolio RPT help documents or reach out to the CAS Personnel Team.
