Promotion and Tenure 
Promotion and tenure guidelines are found in the Faculty Handbook, Section II.E, and in the promotion and tenure documents developed by each college, department, or school.  All final decisions regarding advancement in academic rank are made by the president upon recommendation of promotion and tenure committees in departments, schools, or regional campuses; the department chair, school director, or regional campus dean; the college dean or executive dean of regional campuses, and the executive vice president and provost (EVPP).

A cover (signature) form, titled Review Form for Promotion and/or Tenure, accompanies faculty promotion and tenure materials throughout the review process.

(Note! Do not save forms to your computer as they are updated regularly.  Out-of-date forms will not be accepted.)

After review by the deans or executive dean of regional campuses, select documents within the promotion and tenure packets are forwarded to the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs, Cutler Hall 310, by April 1st* for consideration by the EVPP and president. 

Please follow the detailed list provided that describes which documents in the promotion and tenure packets are to be submitted. (click here)
