D. LECTURER TITLES
A Clinical Lecturer is a qualified professional who assists in one or more aspects of the educational programs of The University of Arizona College of Medicine.
The title Clinical Lecturer applies to individuals who make variable contributions to the educational programs, but whose time commitment does not meet the criteria for the prefix series. Such individuals are primarily clinicians in the community who give an occasional lecture, lead a seminar, supervise a resident, conduct rounds and participate in conferences. They admit their patients to teaching services, serve as attending physicians on an occasional basis, but do not desire consistent, active involvement in the teaching of College of Medicine residents/students. They will be reviewed on a 3-year cycle of reappointment.
