Reappointment, Promotion and Tenure
Preparing Faculty for Continued Success
Reappointment, promotion and tenure mark significant milestones in a faculty member’s academic career. Reappointment is the extension of a faculty contract after a successful initial appointment and review period, while promotion assigns a new ranking for tenure-track and tenured faculty members. Tenure guarantees a faculty member’s continued employment and promotes the academic freedom of the faculty.
