Faculty Family Policies

Overview

Faculty Family Policies were developed by MIT's Council on Faculty Diversity, and approved by Academic Council in December 2001. Implementation and monitoring of the policies are the responsibility of the Council's Subcommittee on Faculty Family Policies.

Policies

The goal of these policies is to help MIT faculty have productive careers and still meet their family responsibilities. Since family care takes different forms at different ages and different family constellations, the policies take these differences into account.
