Emeritus Professors

Emeritus Professors

In recognition of distinguished service to the University of Exeter, the title of Emeritus Professor may be conferred on a Professor of the University at or after retirement.

About

  • Retiring Professors do not apply for Emeritus Professor status and the agreement by the Senate and Council is not required. Emeritus Professor status will normally be conferred on retiring Professors at retirement unless the PVC has reason to recommend otherwise.
  • All retiring Professors who are granted Emeritus Professor status will receive confirmation from the University's Director of Human Resources.
  • On ceremonial occasions Emeritus Professors shall rank in precedence before Professors.
  • The title Emeritus Professor will allow the retiring professor to maintain their IT and Library access but it does not confer any rights to an office or desk space.
  • Emeritus Professor status does not confer any entitlement to serve on any University Body or to exercise any administrative or executive function.
  • There are no expectations of work placed on Emeritus Professors. The title is purely honorary. Some Emeritus Professors choose to remain involved in the University's development on a voluntary basis.
  • Emeritus status does not prevent a Professor being paid for any occasional work they are requested to do by their College. (Any payment would be paid through the eClaims system at an agreed hourly rate.)
  • Emeritus Professors should use the title "Emeritus Professors" in any correspondence or website or other forms of communications so that the audience is clear that their association with the University is honorary.
  • Emeritus Professors should exercise care in their use of the title of Emeritus Professor when making public statements since they are not authorised to speak on behalf of the University.

Policy for Emeritus Professors

  1. In recognition of distinguished service to the University of Exeter, the title of Emeritus Professor will be conferred on any Professor of the University at, or after, retirement.
  2. Retiring Professors do not apply for Emeritus status.  It is conferred "automatically" unless the PVC has reason to recommend otherwise.  The conferring of the title is not subject to agreement by the Senate or Council.
  3. The title Emeritus Professor will allow the retiring professor to maintain their IT and Library access but it does not confer any rights to an office or desk space and they shall not be entitled to such to serve on any University body or to exercise any administrative or executive function.
  4. Similarly there are no expectations of work placed on Emeritus Professors.  The title is purely honorary. Some Emeritus Professors choose to remain involved in the University's development and this would be done on a voluntary basis.  Emeritus status does not prevent a professor being paid for any occasional work they are requested to do (any payment would be paid through the claims payroll at an agreed hourly rate).
  5. On ceremonial occasions Emeritus Professors shall rank in precedence before Professors.

How to maintain your IT account

To ensure that your current IT account is maintained you must update your account user details before your last day of employment.

To maintain access to your current email account and library access you are required to update your IT account details (you will need to log in with your University credentials). You will need to click IT access<Request new IT access<and select the relevant option, in this case Emeritus. You will then be presented with a list of details to complete. If you have an existing IT account, you should enter your current IT username in the relevant field as this will ensure that you keep the same account details.

More details about facilities available to retired members of staff can be found at University of Exeter Retired Staff Association (UERSA).
