Faculty Recruitment Plan and Startup
Request for Faculty Recruitment Plan and Startup Funds
Submission Guidelines
• Departments/Colleges may decide their own internal process for the plan submissions. Department may submit the request in the system that will route to the college OR college may submit a college-level plan in the system.
• The requests will roll into All Funds Planning.
• Prior searches and start-ups that were previously approved but yielded failed hires will not automatically be carried forward. New plans will be required for these positions.
• New hires are expected to be funded by the department and/or college. Deans will be required to work with the department heads and/or directors to identify resources to pay for the salary and costs related to renovations and startup (if applicable).
• Deans are expected to review their college’s plans and to prioritize the positions that warrant the Provost’s or SVP’s consideration.
• Routing workflow depends on the Type of Request selected. If Faculty Hiring Plan is selected, it will route to the Provost and SVP. If RII Investment Funding is selected, it will route to the RII. If both are selected, it will route to both.
Submission Guidelines
• Recruitment plans must contain the following information:
1. Provide justification for the position, including how the position aligns with the strategic vision and needs of the department and college and how the position supports the University of Arizona’s ambitions for institutional excellence and distinctiveness.
2. Describe how the department and college ensure the diversity, equity, and inclusion goals of the unit and the university are addressed.
Submission Guidelines
• In limited circumstances, deans may request start-up funds from the Office of Research, Innovation, and Impact (RII). All commitments are to be made fiscal year to fiscal year. These limited circumstances must include a strong connection to the strategic plan, extreme research value, and demonstrate that the school, college, and the Provost’s Office are participating. Approval of your request will depend on availability of funds and the discretion of the RII.
• RII start-up requests shall contain information to address the following:
1. Justification for funding request and why this need cannot be met by the standard hiring plan submitted to the Provost
2. Financial support requested and overall investment plan
3. How will the RII investment increase the university’s research capacity or enhance economic development outcomes?
4. How does this request align with the UArizona strategic plan?
