Retirement and Emeritus Status (rev. 10/94)
Upon retirement, full-time members of the teaching faculty may be
granted the title "emeritus" upon recommendation by the chairperson of
the department, the dean of the college, and the approval of the Provost
and Vice President for Academic Affairs, providing that all of the
following criteria have been met:
- The faculty member has made distinguished contributions to teaching,
scholarship, or service during tenure at the University of Delaware.
- The faculty member has attained the rank of Associate or Full
Professor by the time of retirement.
- Service at the University of Delaware has been for at least eight
years.
The names of emeritus faculty are carried in the University catalog. In
addition they are invited to all convocations and formal exercises, and
they continue to have faculty privileges at the University library.
