Important Information
During the comment process you are connected to a database. Like internet banking, the session that connects you to the database may time-out due to inactivity. If you do not have JavaScript running you will recieve a message to advise you of the length of time before the time-out. If you have JavaScript enabled, the time-out is lengthy and should not cause difficulty, however you should note the following tips to avoid losing your comments or corrupting your entries:
-
DO NOT jump between web pages/applications while logging comments.
-
DO NOT log comments for more than one document at a time. Complete and submit all comments for one document before commenting on another.
-
DO NOT leave your submission half way through. If you need to take a break, submit your current set of comments. The system will email you a copy of your comments so you can identify where you were up to and add to them later.
-
DO NOT exit from the interface until you have completed all three stages of the submission process.
(1) The purpose of this Policy is to outline the process for creating and naming all privately funded academic positions. (2) This Policy applies to all privately funded academic positions. (3) The Vice-Chancellor and President approves the naming of all privately funded academic positions and creation of privately funded academic positions at Level E (professor). The Provost/Senior Deputy Vice-Chancellor approves the creation of positions at Levels C-D (senior lecturer and associate professor). These positions are funded by industry, commerce or statutory authorities, and may be named after sponsoring organisations at the discretion of the Vice-Chancellor and President. (4) Duties and responsibilities of staff in privately funded positions must be consistent with the development and reputation of the University and the relevant school and faculty. The position must be in an area in which the University either has already established, or intends to establish a reputation. (5) The creation of privately funded academic positions is negotiated through the Advancement Office. There are specific requirements for committing and administering funds for this purpose (Trusts, Gifts and Privately Funded Positions Policy). (6) Sponsored appointments are normally advertised and filled in accordance with University policy on recruitment and selection. However, when funding for a sponsored position is dependent upon the appointment of a nominated person, the matter shall be referred to the Vice-Chancellor and President, or where appropriate the Provost/Senior Deputy Vice-Chancellor for approval to proceed. Upon such approval, the appropriate selection panel shall be constituted to determine whether the nominee meets the selection criteria for appointment and to make a recommendation on appointment to the Vice-Chancellor and President, or where appropriate the Provost/Senior Deputy Vice-Chancellor. (7) The University will consider the naming of a "Chair" position in recognition of an organisation which is a benefactor, when that organisation normally provides 100% of the salary cost of a Level E position, but less may be considered in exceptional circumstances. The position would be known as the < sponsor's name > Chair in < academic/research area >. (8) The University will consider the naming of other positions in recognition of an organisation which is a benefactor, when that organisation normally provides 100% of the salary cost of a position, but less may be considered in exceptional circumstances. The position would be known as the < sponsor's name > < position title > in < academic/research area >. (9) The University will consider the naming of an academic or research only position in recognition of an organisation which is a benefactor, when that organisation contributes less than 100% of cost, usually no less than 40%. The position would be known as the < position title > in < academic/research area > sponsored by < sponsor's name >. (10) An appointee to a sponsored position is employed under such conditions as pertain to the particular mode and level of the appointment. (11) The Vice-Chancellor and President reports to Council as required. (12) The Vice-President (People) and Chief People Officeris authorised to approve variations to this Policy in exceptional circumstances. Any such variation will be recorded by Human Resources.Privately Funded Academic Positions Policy
