Procedure

The faculty travel allocation is established by CLAS based on the tenure track FTE in the department in the prior academic year. This account should be used exclusively for travel expenses of permanent faculty (i.e. tenure track, instructional track, or clinical track faculty) while on university business trips. Travel funds will only be allocated to departments in the Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences. 

The department has discretion in setting the process for awarding travel dollars to their faculty. These funds must be spent in the fiscal year they were allocated and no carryover beyond June 30 will be considered.
