> Dean Tedesco has asked that I send out the following:
>
> Engineering Faculty,
>
> Below are the College Guidelines and Application Format for faculty 
> interested in applying for a Faculty Development Leave for 2010-2011.  
> If you plan to take a Faculty Development Leave, please submit your 
> request to Dean Tedesco by May 14, 2010.  Due to the current and 
> projected budget restrictions, we do not anticipate any University 
> replacement funds for faculty on leave.  Therefore, department budgets 
> must bear the financial burden of any leaves granted.  It is essential 
> that you obtain the approval of your Department Chair before 
> submitting your request to the Dean.  In considering a request, the 
> Dean will give priority to faculty members requesting a full academic 
> year leave.
>
>  
>
> Provost Antel expects annual research expenditures to increase to 
> $350,000 per year per FTE faculty member, and our annual PhD 
> graduation rate to approach 1.0 PhD graduates per FTE faculty. Thus, 
> consistent with these Tier 1 initiatives, a Faculty Development Leave 
> plan should include how the leave will significantly enhance  research 
> expenditures and PhD student support.
>
>  
>
> If you have any questions, please let me know.
