According to Appendix A. Section E. of :��

“Emeritus/Emerita is an honorary designation awarded upon retirement to faculty with a record of strong contributions to the university. Faculty are nominated for emeritus/emerita status by their department and approved by the dean, provost, and chancellor. The emeritus/emerita designation is added to the title/rank held by the faculty member at the time of retirement.”

Process

Note: This form should only be used after a faculty member has retired.

If the primary unit chooses to request emeriti status for a retiring faculty member, the liaison must initiate this form to request approval of the status by the Office of Faculty Affairs (OFA). Information on the retirement process can be found on the OFA website here. In schools/colleges with individual departments and programs, the department or program is the primary unit. In schools/colleges without a departmental structure, the primary unit is the school/college itself. 

• Once a vote of the primary unit has taken place to recommend emeriti status, the primary unit chair must write a letter to the dean requesting emeritus status. The letter should include the primary unit vote (yes, no, and abstain). Emeriti status is awarded at the rank the faculty member holds at the time of retirement.
• The recommendation letter should be submitted to the faculty HR liaison. The liaison would then initiate approval of the emeriti status request by completing this form and attaching the chair’s recommendation letter.
• When filling out the form, the faculty HR liaison should include the required school/college/department approvals.
• The form will route to OFA for approval automatically. Please do not add OFA approvers as part of the approval list as this will duplicate OFA approvals.
• The liaison will have an optional opportunity to copy up to 5 additional individuals or units (for example, the Human Resources Service Center (HRSC)) for any additional processing that is necessary per specific school/college/department procedures.
