Faculty

In some cases, faculty members ask the bookstore to create course packets for their students. If these course packets contain copyrighted material, the information about the author must be reported to the Centre Français d’Exploitation du Droit de Copie (CFC), which will collect the proper royalties and forward them to the author. Faculty must also report the scanning of copyrighted material. AUP reports annually to the CFC the number of materials copied or scanned. 

AUP is committed to ensuring student success. To that end, when events outside of a student’s control prevent completion of a course, a student may be granted a temporary “Incomplete” grade and extended deadline to complete coursework.

In order to eliminate the possibility of cheating, faculty members should follow certain processes when administering exams.

This policy clarifies faculty rights and responsibilities with regard to academic freedom.

This policy outlines an effective and consistent process for the development, revision, and management of AUP policies. Accessible and carefully reviewed policies communicate AUP’s mission, promote efficiency, reduce risk, and encourage accountability.

As foreseen by French law, this document clarifies for all members of our community the expectations, rights, responsibilities and obligations of all employees of the institution. The exceptional diversity which is represented by AUP's ranks requires a high level of understanding and tolerance of the cultural specificities that both differentiate and unite us.

The strategic planning, budgeting and assessment process of AUP is part of an annual iterative cycle involving all departments of the University. In order to effectively assess and improve processes, all units must adhere to the schedule and produce the deliverables outlined in this policy in a timely fashion.

This policy describes how AUP manages requests to use classroom space for events, meetings, and student activities. As the demand for classroom space grows, it is important that the process for requesting space be rational and transparent to ensure efficiency and fairness. This policy prevents event overlap, encourages coordination of events across campus, and helps increase the success of such events.

Comme prévu par la loi française, ce document clarifie pour tout membre de notre communauté les attentes et les droits, les responsabilités et les devoirs de tout salarié de l'institution. La diversité exceptionnelle représentée dans les rangs de l'AUP nécessite une grande compréhension et tolérance des spécificités culturelles qui nous différencient et nous lient.
