UNIVERSITY FACULTY SCHOLARS PROGRAM Office of the Provost and Office of the Executive Vice President for Research & Partnerships FY 2016-17 Program Description The Office of the Provost will continue the University Faculty Scholars Program for FY16-17. Under the program, 120 University Faculty Scholars are authorized. Fifteen of these awards will be jointly funded by the Showalter Foundation and the Provost. These fifteen awards will specifically support University Faculty Scholars in the life sciences1 and will be named Showalter Faculty Scholars. All other University Faculty Scholar awards will support faculty scholars from all disciplines. The distribution of University Faculty Scholars to the academic colleges and the Libraries is based on the total budgeted count of tenure/tenure track faculty lines (filled and unfilled) in each unit. The distribution will be recalibrated every five years with notice provided one year in advance of any adjustments. The 120 University Faculty Scholar Awards will be available as follows:
The University Faculty Scholars Program is intended to recognize outstanding mid-career faculty who are on an accelerated path for academic distinction. Eligibility includes faculty who hold the rank of tenured associate or full professor who have been in rank for no more than five years and new hires at this academic level if appointed with tenure. Faculty who hold a distinguished or named professorship cannot simultaneously hold a University Faculty Scholar or Showalter Faculty Scholar designation. Financial Resources All University Faculty Scholars will be awarded for 5 years with an annual allocation of $10,000. If a University Faculty Scholar leaves Purdue prior to the completion of the award period, any uncommitted balance in the centrally funded award account will be returned to the Provost. Units will be responsible for notifying the Vice Provost for Faculty Affairs of these events. Review and Approval Process Nominations for Faculty Scholars are requested by March 1 with appointments beginning July 1. All candidates from the life sciences1will be considered for nomination as a Showalter Faculty Scholar.
