The maximum period of service in individual titles may be shorter than eight years. For further information, please consult the appropriate APM section for a specific title.

 

At UC San Diego, promotion consideration typically occurs in the sixth year of appointment at the Assistant rank.  The period of time prior to consideration for promotion is referred to as the probationary period.  During the probationary period, Assistant-rank appointees are expected to produce work sufficient to justify promotion.

Periods of leave, whether with or without salary, shall be included as service toward the eight-year period unless, upon the basis of a petition filed at the time leave is requested, the Executive Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs, after consultation with the Academic Senate Committee on Academic Personnel, determines that the activity undertaken during the course of the leave is substantially unrelated to the individual's academic career and that the period of the leave shall not count toward the eight-year service period. For new appointments, this determination is made on the basis of a petition filed at the time of the proposed appointment. In such cases, the Executive Vice Chancellor may permit the leave period to be excluded from service for the purposes of calculating the eight years.

 

A period of leave, with or without salary, which is based on a serious health condition or disability, shall be included as service toward the eight-year period, unless, upon the basis of a petition normally filed within one quarter or semester after the leave is taken, the Executive Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs, after consultation with the Academic Senate Committee on Academic Personnel, determines that the leave shall not be included as service toward the eight-year period. In each case, the Executive Vice Chancellor shall report such a decision in writing to the individual.

 

However, any childbearing or parental leave, provided for in APM - 760-25 and 760-27 which is equal to or exceeds one semester or one quarter and which is not greater than one year, whether with or without salary, shall be excluded from service toward the eight-year period unless the faculty member informs the department chair in writing before, during, or within one quarter or semester after the leave that it should not be excluded from service toward the eight-year period. (See APM - 133-17-a, -b, -c, -d, and -i).

 

Note: Exclusion of one or two quarters or one semester will not necessarily delay the timing of a review. Any other approved leave provided for in APM - 133-17-h also is excluded from service toward the eight-year period.
