VII.F   Leave Policy

Leave policy for senior faculty in the Divinity School conforms in general to that of the University. (See Section XVII.) Assistant professors are eligible for a paid year of research leave between the second and fourth year of their service at that rank. Newly promoted associate professors on term are eligible for a paid year of research leave upon their appointment to the rank (provided that two semesters of full-time teaching in residence have elapsed since their last paid leave.) In both cases, a faculty member must submit to the dean by January 1 of the previous academic year prior a proposal for the research to be pursued during the leave. A faculty member awarded a leave must return to Yale for a full year of teaching. For complete information on leaves, consult the Dean.
