- Affiliate Appointments in Other Departments, Programs, and Centers
- Section 3 of the UMBC Faculty Handbook allows academic departments, programs, and centers to offer affiliate appointments of faculty or staff from other UMBC units. Thus, people from CSST may obtain affiliate appointments in other UMBC units, and people from other units may obtain affiliate appointments with CSST. The titles of these affiliations are Affiliate Assistant Professor, Affiliate Associate Professor, and Affiliate Professor. Rank is at the discretion of the unit making the affiliate appointment and will not necessarily match the rank within the home unit. The rights, responsibilities, and integration of these roles vary widely by department. While members of the CSST faculty are welcome to pursue this independently by reaching out to colleagues in other units, the CSST faculty are encouraged to work with the Director of CSST throughout this process.
