The Professor in Residence title is used for appointing a small number of senior individuals recruited to the Professorial ranks for a limited period of time. The intended use of this title is to appoint senior scholars who fulfill the following requirements:
- Meet a well-defined but potentially time-limited programmatic or administrative need;
- Have the capacity to make significant contributions to the Faculty of Medicine throughout the term of their appointment;
- Have had a considerable impact on their field, including demonstrated excellence in research and teaching
Ordinarily, individuals considered for this type of appointment will have held a full Professorial appointment at a peer institution.
This is a non-tenure title with a term limit of five (5) years, which may be renewed for a single additional five (5) year term, following the procedures outlined in chapter 7.4.1.
