Endowed chairs and professorships are one the highest academic awards that the University can bestow on a faculty member, with some named entities being as old as the University itself. Thus, it is both an honor to the named holder of the appointment and also an enduring tribute to the donor who helped establish it.
Current chairholders
A list of current endowed chairholders is maintained on the .
Endowed chairs and professorships are governed by the Policy Relating to the Naming of University Assets and the Policy on the Approval of Contracts and Designation of Signing. For questions related to the establishment or dis-establishment of an endowed chair, please contact the academic.personnel [at] mcgill.ca (Academic Personnel Office).
Procedure for Selection, Appointment and Reappointment
The appointment of an endowed chair or professorship may proceed once the chair or professorship has been established. The following steps also apply to direct-funded (limited-term) chairs and professorship.
- The Dean monitors the endowed chairs under the Faculty鈥檚 purview for vacant chairs and chairs coming up for renewal. The Dean strikes a committee to initiate the selection or renewal process as necessary. It is recommended that the committee initiates the review six months in advance of the appointment or reappointment date to allow sufficient time for all steps to be finalized.
- A Faculty committee charged with the selection carries out its search and forwards a report in support of its recommendation to the Dean of the Faculty.
- The Faculty submits the appointment or reappointment dossier in Workday via the process 鈥淎dd Additional Job鈥� (new appointment) or 鈥淐hange Job鈥� (reappointment) in order to add/reappoint this appointment to the professor鈥檚 employment record. Please note that the field "Academic Stipend Research Named Entities" is the salary stipend and not the research allocation. Once this process is finalized Workday generates a board letter to the Chairholder and Endowed Chair/Professorship Research Fund Guidelines*. Information regarding adding/changing a job can be found in the , and (Stipend Positions section).
*Note: The Endowed Chair/Professorship Research Fund Guidelines is currently a mandatory step in Workday for all endowed appointments. If the endowed appointment does not include a research allocation this form will be modified to reflect that it does not apply to them but they will still be required to accept the form.
