A Provost Office Professional Improvement Leave allows faculty members to pursue their professional and scholarly interests by temporarily stepping away from teaching and service commitments. Faculty can apply for a paid leave to engage in teaching improvement, writing and research, scholarly pursuits, or to gain professional experiences in their field. PIL provides faculty with the institutional support for sustained professional growth and development and enhances their continued contributions to the university.
