T&P Orientation
UCTP Tenure and Promotions Orientation
Each spring on Reading Day, the University Committee on Tenure and Promotions offers orientations for tenure and promotion candidates and committee chairs. All pre-tenure faculty members are welcome to attend the orientation for candidates, which may also be of use for those candidates in the process of preparing files for submission. The committee chairs orientation is open not only to newly elected t&p chairs, but also to any returning chairs, as well as to those faculty interested in chairing unit t&p committees or serving on UCTP in the future.
2027 Orientations
On Tuesday, April 27, Reading Day, the University Committee on Tenure and Promotions will offer two tenure and promotion orientations, one for candidates at 9 a.m. and a second for tenure and promotion committee chairs at 11 a.m.
Additional details will be forthcoming.
