XX.C   Research and Scholarship

Excellence in research and scholarship is expected of persons holding faculty appointments. It is University policy to encourage and assist research and scholarship that are essential to the training of students, to the advancement of knowledge, and to the intellectual growth of the faculty. To this end, the University will help faculty to secure appropriate research support from outside sources. Applications for external funding for research, teaching, or other activities (including subaward applications to other entities) must be submitted through Yale. Exceptions to submit applications through another institution or organization require prior written approval of the Provost or, for faculty in the School of Medicine, the Dean. Clinical activities (which occur primarily in the Schools of Medicine and Nursing) are also covered by the policies and procedures below.
