Old Dominion University Adjunct Faculty Approval & Employment Authorization Form I. Executive Summary The purpose of the Faculty Credentials and Qualifications Guidebook is to inform faculty and faculty administrators of the academic credentials and qualifications that are required for faculty members to possess in order to teach courses at Old Dominion University (ODU). Along with identifying the required academic credentials, this manual will clarify the procedures, forms and the necessary information needed (1) to hire new faculty (2) for faculty to teach courses within and across disciplines and (3) to provide the proper way to present justification for individuals to teach courses based on alternative credentials/qualifications. ODU’s requirements for hiring and maintaining appropriately credentialed faculty are aligned with standards set by its regional accrediting body, the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC) in the Principles of Accreditation: Foundations for Quality Enhancement under Comprehensive Standard 3.7.1. All of the University’s instructional faculty (full-time, part-time, adjunct, and teaching assistants) are required to meet the guidelines established by SACSCOC. Individuals responsible for selecting, credentialing and approving faculty are required to ensure faculty are qualified to teach in the program at the time of hire as well as confirm that faculty are qualified to teach their assigned courses during their tenure at the University. The information in this manual will be reviewed periodically by the Faculty Qualifications and Guidelines Committee (FQGC). Revisions, additions and deletions will be made as programs are added or discontinued from the University’s office degree inventory maintained by the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia (SCHEV). All changes will be evaluated by the FQGC and maintained by the Office of the Provost. II. Credentialing Guidelines A. SACSCOC REQUIREMENTS FOR CREDENTIALING 3.7.1. The institution employs competent faculty members qualified to accomplish the mission and goals of the institution. When determining acceptable qualifications of its faculty, an institution gives primary consideration to the highest earned degree in the discipline in accordance with the guidelines listed below. The institution also considers competence, effectiveness, and capacity, including, as appropriate, undergraduate and graduate degrees, related work experiences in the field, professional licensure and certifications, honors and awards, continuous documented excellence in teaching, or other demonstrated competencies and achievements that contribute to effective teaching and student learning outcomes. For all cases, the institution is responsible for justifying and documenting the qualifications of its faculty. Faculty teaching general education courses at the undergraduate level: doctoral or master’s degree in the teaching discipline or master’s degree with a concentration in the teaching discipline (a minimum of 18 graduate semester hours in the teaching discipline). Faculty teaching baccalaureate courses: doctoral or master’s degree in the teaching discipline or master’s degree with a concentration in the teaching discipline (minimum of 18 graduate semester hours in the teaching discipline). At least 25 percent of the discipline course hours in each undergraduate major are taught by faculty members holding the terminal degree—usually the earned doctorate—in the discipline. Faculty teaching graduate and post-baccalaureate course work: earned doctorate/terminal degree in the teaching discipline or a related discipline. Graduate teaching assistants: master’s in the teaching discipline or 18 graduate semester hours in the teaching discipline, direct supervision by a faculty member experienced in the teaching discipline, regular in-service training, and planned and periodic evaluations. B. Old Dominion University’s Faculty Credentialing Policy Please note these guidelines can be found in the Faculty Handbook section two. I. Academic and Professional Preparation Requirements for Faculty Old Dominion University's academic and professional preparation requirements for full-time and part-time faculty conform to the criteria established by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC). The Commission expects the University to employ faculty members whose highest degree earned is recognized as their qualifying credential to teach at the University as well as the degree being from a regionally accredited university. 1. If the University employs a faculty member whose highest earned degree is from a non-regionally accredited university within the United States or an institution outside the United States, the University must show evidence that the faculty member has the appropriate academic preparation. 2. The University must ensure that each faculty member employed is proficient in oral and written communication in the language in which assigned courses will be taught. A. Undergraduate Instruction: Each full-time and part-time faculty member teaching courses leading to a baccalaureate degree, other than physical education activities courses, must have completed at least 18 graduate semester hours in the teaching discipline and hold at least a master's degree, or hold a master's degree with a major in the teaching discipline. Graduate teaching assistants teaching such courses must have completed a master's degree in the teaching discipline or have completed 18 graduate hours in the discipline: further, they must receive regular in-service training and periodic evaluations and have direct supervision by a faculty member experienced in the teaching area. In exceptional cases, outstanding professional experience and demonstrated contributions to the teaching discipline may be presented in lieu of formal academic preparation. Such cases must be justified on an individual basis. Interdisciplinary courses may be taught by faculty members qualified in a related discipline. B. Graduate Instruction: Each full-time and part-time faculty member teaching courses at the master's or specialist degree level must hold the terminal degree, usually the earned doctorate, in the teaching discipline or a related discipline and hold graduate certification from a one of the academic colleges at the University. In some instances, the master's degree may be the terminal degree; in others, a master's degree in the discipline coupled with a doctoral degree in a related discipline is considered appropriate. a. It is the responsibility of the department appointing the part-time faculty member to justify the master's degree, or master's in the teaching discipline coupled with a related doctorate, as the terminal degree for faculty members teaching in those disciplines. b. All faculty members teaching courses at the doctoral degree level must hold the earned doctorate in the teaching discipline or a related discipline. Public health program faculty who hold a terminal practice degree, i.e. J.D., M.D., Pharm.D., D.D.S., etc., and possess the knowledge and current practice experience could be certified to teach in the public health graduate programs. c. In unusual cases, faculty members who have demonstrated exceptional scholarly or creative activity, or professional experience, but who may not possess the required academic credentials may be approved as graduate faculty. Evidence of competence or academic credentials other than the doctorate in the discipline for graduate faculty must be presented as justification for employment. C. Credentials Required: It is the responsibility of the University to keep on file, for all full-time and part-time faculty members, documentation of academic preparation, such as official transcripts, and, if appropriate for demonstrating competence, official documentation of professional or work experience, technical and performance competency, records of publications, certifications and other qualifications. All degrees must have been conferred by regionally accredited colleges or universities. Degrees from international universities must be fully justified. For faculty teaching graduate courses, a completed current Certification for Graduate Instruction form must also be on file. Note: Copies of the documentation and a memorandum from the department Chair justifying any exception to the criteria for academic and professional preparation must accompany the Adjunct Faculty Approval/Employment Authorization form when submitted to the Office of Academic Affairs. C. Alternative Credentials In extraordinary circumstances in which a prospective faculty member does not meet the set criteria, that individual may be considered to teach course(s) based on alternative credentialing. The faculty member should demonstrate extensive professional experience, significant contributions to the teaching discipline, and considerable knowledge of the competencies needed to teach the course objectives

  • General Criteria Used for Selecting and Evaluating Graduate Faculty I

    General Criteria Used for Selecting and Evaluating Graduate Faculty I

    General Criteria used for Selecting and Evaluating Graduate Faculty I. Rationale A majority of universities that award graduate degrees have established procedures to identify faculty members specifically qualified to train students in advanced degree programs. These members are then identified as the Graduate Faculty. The main responsibilities of the Graduate Faculty are to conduct scholarly research and creative work of high quality, to teach graduate students effectively, to advise graduate students, and to direct the research of graduate students. Listed below are the University-wide performance expectations for those faculty who have these responsibilities at Clayton State University. II. Expectations for Current Graduate Faculty Members Members of the Graduate Faculty at Clayton State University must continually satisfy both University-wide standards and those specific to individual academic components. No single performance criterion should be used to judge the fitness of a member. The primary consideration is whether the faculty member is currently an active and productive scholar and sufficiently prepared to teach at the graduate level. The University-wide performance expectations for current members are as follows: A. Scholarship 1. Possession of the terminal academic degree in the member’s field and ability to submit proof of said degree or recognition for substantive and distinctive contributions to the discipline involved. 2. Evidence of current involvement in scholarly research and/or creative activity. This evidence may consist of the publication of books and refereed articles, obtainment of research grants and contracts, recitals, exhibitions, performances, or other demonstrations of scholarship appropriate to the discipline. B. Intellectual Leadership 1. Active participation in regional, national, or international meetings in or related to the respective discipline.
  • On Professional Degree Requirement for Civil Engineering Practice

    On Professional Degree Requirement for Civil Engineering Practice

    Session 2515 ON PROFESSIONAL DEGREE REQUIREMENT FOR CIVIL ENGINEERING PRACTICE James T. P. Yao, Loren D. Lutes Texas A&M University, College Station, Texas I. Introduction In May 1998, ASCE NEWS announced that the Board of Direction “approved a resolution endorsing the master’s degree as the first professional degree for the practice of civil engineering.” The July 1998 ASCE NEWS clarified the earlier article by quoting the definition of the “first professional degree” used by the U.S. Department of Education. It is defined as “a degree that signifies both completion of the academic requirements for beginning practice in a given profession and a level of professional skill beyond that normally required for a bachelor’s degree.” Such a degree is generally required for dentists, physicians, pharmacists, lawyers, theologians, and architects. It is usually based on a total of at least six academic years of work. Arguments that have advanced for considering such a professional degree for civil engineering practice include: • The bachelor’s degree is no longer adequate preparation for civil engineering practice. • This change would improve the professional stature of civil engineers and thus improve the compensation of practitioners. • It would provide a clear distinction between civil engineering graduates and technicians. The same July 1998 article reported that the ASCE Board of Direction is contemplating promotion of a policy being prepared by the Educational Activities Committee. Also, the Board may decide to seek support from such organizations as the Accreditation Board of Engineering and Technology, the National Society of Professional Engineers, and the National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying.

    The Magisterium of the Faculty of Theology of Paris in the Seventeenth Century

    Theological Studies 53 (1992) THE MAGISTERIUM OF THE FACULTY OF THEOLOGY OF PARIS IN THE SEVENTEENTH CENTURY JACQUES M. GRES-GAYER Catholic University of America S THEOLOGIANS know well, the term "magisterium" denotes the ex­ A ercise of teaching authority in the Catholic Church.1 The transfer of this teaching authority from those who had acquired knowledge to those who received power2 was a long, gradual, and complicated pro­ cess, the history of which has only partially been written. Some sig­ nificant elements of this history have been overlooked, impairing a full appreciation of one of the most significant semantic shifts in Catholic ecclesiology. One might well ascribe this mutation to the impetus of the Triden­ tine renewal and the "second Roman centralization" it fostered.3 It would be simplistic, however, to assume that this desire by the hier­ archy to control better the exposition of doctrine4 was never chal­ lenged. There were serious resistances that reveal the complexity of the issue, as the case of the Faculty of Theology of Paris during the seventeenth century abundantly shows. 1 F. A.
