Changes to faculty titles MUST be reviewed and approved by that faculty member's home department.
For example, if a web maintainer from a Maxwell center wants to update a faculty member's title, that change must be discussed and approved by their home academic department.
Title 1
Enter the faculty member's main role with their home unit such as "Professor" or "Assistant Professor".
If they have two or more titles in the SAME unit, use both i.e. "Professor and Chair, Economics Department".
Titles 2 through 5
Use these titles to create affiliations with other units as-needed.
Rank/order of titles:
Home department title (including chair, professor of, chair, director of, or in the case of faculty from another school, their Maxwell courtesy appointment)
Dean’s Office title (e.g., “associate dean” or named professorship)
Research Unit Director or other leadership position
