Academic Operations
The Office of Academic Operations supports the academic mission of the college by providing strategic and functional support to the Provost, deans, and department chairs in all resource matters. We routinely partner with the Office of Human Resources, Business Services and the Office of the General Counsel and Labor Designee to make sure that we are in compliance with all internal policies and procedures as well as those of the University, the PSC and New York State.

For Faculty
Workload
Full-time faculty are encouraged to review the 2017-2023 PSC-CUNY Collective Bargaining Agreement for all contractual questions.
Article 15.1 of the contract addresses specific areas of Workload and Article 15.5 reinforces the importance of Multiple Positions compliance.
The 2017 Undergraduate Teaching Workload statement issued by the University sets annual workload obligation for full-time faculty as follows:
- Professors, Associate Professors, Assistant Professors, Distinguished Lecturers - 18 hours
- Instructors, Lecturers - 24 hours
- Substitute titles are expected to teach 3 more hours than is standard for the corresponding non-substitute faculty rank
John Jay College manages full-time faculty workload data via the online e-Workload application. All teaching and non-teaching workload information are listed on one form per faculty. Faculty are required to review, edit, and approve their forms each semester. Department Chairs are required to review, edit, and approve the workload for all their full-time faculty each semester. Pertinent contractual deadlines and special comments are listed when applicable.
Please review Workload FAQs for more information.
Multiple Positions
Multiple Positions Policy supports faculty's commitment to their instructional positions and their students by limiting hours of activities beyond full-time faculty appointments and workload obligations. Each full-time faculty, including substitute titles and faculty on an approved leave of absence, are required to submit multiple position form each semester. When reporting activities beyond their full-time JJay appointment, faculty must submit their forms to review and approval by the Department Chair and/or Department P&B Committee, before any work commences.
Please review Multiple Positions FAQs for more information.

The Instructor/Advisor Table maintains instructor and advisor data that is used by other pages in CUNYfirst and other connected systems. Instructors must be in this table before they can be selected as an instructor in the Coursedog scheduling system. The instructor must be listed in the Coursedog in order to use CUNYfirst Faculty Self-Service to view class rosters, enter grades, and to access Blackboard for their specific class(es).
An individual must already exist in the CUNYfirst system with an established Employee ID in order to add them to the Instructor/Advisor table. Empl ID is created upon instructor's initial hire by CUNY. Each instructor has one Empl ID across the CUNY system, no matter the number of jobs they were hired for during their career at the University.

Academic Affairs space planning aims to determine the purpose, functional requirements, and basic layout of specific areas used by full-time and part-time faculty and staff. Annual department reviews of their current floor plans assist our office in effectively managing all available rooms and addressing the need for additional offices or meeting places. Our office can also assist in faculty and staff office relocation processes or office reconfigurations.
