Tenure evaluation criteria

Tenure evaluation criteria assess a faculty member's contributions across several areas: research (publications and discoveries), teaching (efficacy and commitment to students), service (participation in university and community activities), and professional development (continuing learning and scholarly growth). The process aims to ensure the faculty member has demonstrated sustained excellence, stability, and a meaningful impact in their field and institution. Successful evaluation indicates they are qualified to hold a permanent position, contributing positively to the university’s academic mission and reputation.
