The academic specialist may hold a position requiring performance of advising/teaching/curriculum development, research, or service/outreach duties. Appointment as an academic specialist is limited to academic units which report--directly or indirectly--to the Office of the Provost or to the Vice President for Research and Graduate Studies. The academic specialist may be appointed in the Academic Specialist Appointment System on a continuing basis, on a probationary basis, or on a fixed term basis (appointments with ending dates) (see Sections 4.8 and 4.9).
