Faculty Hiring Manual 
Section 4: Finalist Visits and Decisions
 

4.7 Pre-Employment Drug Screening

Pre-employment drug screening for faculty is generally not required. However, Hiring Units should consult with individual units/dean and UHR Representatives to ensure that special circumstances do not exist. Some units, especially in the biomedical sciences, may have other necessary pre-employment health requirements for licensure or appointment and continued appointment consistent with state and/or federal law.
