Leave policies for the School of Architecture conform in general to those set forth in Section XVII and Section III.I. Tenured faculty are eligible for Triennial Leaves of Absence, Sabbatical Leaves of Absence, and Senior Faculty Fellowships. Adjunct faculty and endowed professors in practice are eligible for Sabbatical Leaves of Absence after having taught in those ranks at Yale for twelve semesters without a paid leave. 1. Assistant Professor Leaves. Assistant professors are eligible for a one-year leave at full pay in the second, third, or fourth year of teaching at that rank at Yale, provided they return to Yale for a full year of teaching. Such leaves are awarded to assistant professors who present, in the fall of the previous academic year, a leave proposal that is evaluated by a subcommittee of the Executive Committee and then approved by the dean and the Provost's Office. Leave proposals shall be a five-page single-spaced explanation of the scope and significance of the proposed research or professional practice, opportunities for publication and realization, and a detailed plan to achieve the stated intention regarding research, publication, or professional practice. 2. Associate Professor Leave s Assistant professors who are appointed or promoted to the rank of associate professor on term are eligible for a one-year leave at full pay provided at least two semesters of full-time teaching in residence have elapsed since their last leave and they return to Yale after the leave for a full year of teaching. Such leaves follow the same application process and criteria as leaves afforded assistant professors.
