| The
appointment category of Research Affiliate provides a mechanism for faculty
members to be formally affiliated with University of Manitoba Research
Centres/Institutes.
A
Research Affiliate is an individual who normally holds a full-time academic
appointment with The University of Manitoba or with another University and who,
as a result of his/her research expertise and achievements, desires an affiliation
with a Research Centre/Institute which would be of mutual benefit to both the
Research Centre/Institute and the individual. There is no salary associated with
the appointment. The individual is expected to contribute to and share in the
research activities of the Research Centre/Institute but will not normally have
any assigned duties associated with the appointment. In the event that duties
are assigned, they must be of a very limited nature and have the approval of the
home faculty/school dean/director. Research Affiliates will be expected to hold
a doctoral degree or have equivalent qualifications and experience.
Research Affiliate appointments must fall within the following parameters:
- They are term-limited
with a start date and an end date. The initial term may
be no longer than
five years.
- There
is nil salary.
- Research
Affiliate appointments are normally only available to full-time
academic staff
at this or another recognized University, who hold a doctoral
degree or have
equivalent qualifications and experience.
