Promotion Timelines for Tenure-Track Faculty

The Associate Dean of Faculty serves as chair of the Promotion and Tenure Committee. Each year, the Associate Dean will consult with any tenure-track faculty in the “pipeline” to develop a timeline for that faculty’s promotional review process.

Timetable Summary:

If hired as Assistant Professor: promotion review to Associate in 3rd year of full-time service; tenure review during 5th or 6th year of full-time service; open to promotion to Professor at least one year after tenure (this move is open-ended)

If hired as Associate Professor: tenure review in 4th or 5th year of full-time service; promotion review to Professor at least one year after tenure. Cannot be promoted to Professor until tenure has been granted and then not in the same year

Promotion Timelines for Skills Faculty

The Skills Faculty Review and Promotion Committee oversees the promotion process for skills faculty (as established in 11/2009).

If hired as Assistant Professor: promotion review to Associate in 3rd year of full-time service; Indefinite Contract review during the 5th year of full-time service; Full Professor during the 7th year of full-time service. In certain circumstances, the Dean and candidate may postpone consideration beyond the time period specified.
