ACADEMIC DEANS
DEPARTMENT CHAIRS

My office has revised APP 7-17, “Other Leaves with Pay”, to help define when faculty are continuing to perform all of their responsibilities even if they are not in residence on campus.

Other Leaves with Pay

Academic appointees who will be absent from the UCI campus to engage in research/creative activity, with some of their normal duties (teaching and/or service) being reassigned during the period of leave, may be granted a leave (with pay) for good cause.

  • All leaves of absence require submission of an AP-76 leave of absence form and should be requested in advance of the leave.

Change in Work Location for Faculty

Faculty who will be absent from the UCI campus but will continue to fulfill all their duties during the period of absence (teaching and service), may be granted a change in work location (with pay) for good cause for up to 60 calendar days.

  •  Changes in work location requests should be made, in advance, through the dean.

All academic appointees governed under APM-025 or APM-671, who intend to engage in Category I outside professional activity while on leave or with a change in work location must request and receive prior approval through UC OATS at least 30 days in advance of the expected activity.

Additional information regarding Other Leaves with Pay, including Change in Work Location, can be found on the Academic Personnel website https://ap.uci.edu/policies-procedures/app/7-17/.

Please contact your respective Academic Personnel analyst for questions.

Sincerely,Diane K. O’Dowd
Vice Provost for Academic Personnel
