Appointments of Non-Tenure Track Faculty may be for a term ranging from one year to up to eight years, except grant-funded faculty appointments may be for a term of one year to five years. As of July 1, 2023, appointments to a non-grant funded NTT faculty position, the first appointment shall be for a term of one year or greater, if reappointed, the second appointment shall be for a term of one year or greater. If reappointed a third time, the faculty member shall receive an appointment of not less than three years or greater. If reappointed a fourth term, the term is at least four years or greater. All appointments thereafter shall be for terms of at least five years and shall be presumptively renewable regardless of rank. This reappointment policy does not apply to grant-funded non-tenure track faculty. There is no limit to the number of non-tenure track faculty appointments an individual may receive, except for those faculty in a Lecturer title.
