Banner allows a maximum of 30 characters for a title.
Other titles can stand alone or follow the academic titles on this sheet, with a slash separating them.
Professor of XXXX is appropriate for the College of Business or anywhere the payroll unit is not divided into departments. Otherwise, the title duplicates the unit and is redundant, e.g. Professor of Biology, Department of Biology.
