PrintThe accompanying Research Appointments Matrix shows the most common types of research appointments available in the Faculty of Arts and Sciences. The matrix resulted from an effort in the spring of 2003 to standardize job codes and titles for research appointees, in conjunction with the implementation of an extended benefits program for postdoctoral fellow effective July 1, 2003.
The matrix is intended to answer most questions about which category to use for a particular appointee. There are always grey areas and special cases, however, and clarifications may be obtained from Meghan Schimanski in the FAS Academic Affairs Office (5-9583, mschiman@fas.harvard.edu).
Further information about research appointments in the FAS can be found in the Grey Book at http://www.fas.harvard.edu/~research/greybook/resappts.html.
