Eligible FGCU Faculty may apply for sabbatical leave for either one semester or a full academic year. A committee of faculty members convened by the Faculty Senate reviews sabbatical applications each year using guidelines approved by the Faculty Senate and Vice President of Academic Affairs.
Guidelines and Application Process
The current sabbatical guidelines contain all guidance on eligibility, rules, procedures, and application materials.
Per CBA Article 22.3B.2: Each year, the University will make available at least one (1) sabbatical at full-pay for one (1) semester for each forty (40) eligible employees.
