Post Tenure

Post Tenure Reviews are conducted every five years for tenured faculty members. In 2012, the Board of Regents adopted a new Regents Rule that that provided specific guidelines for conducting post tenure reviews, including a requirement for peer review. 

The SMS Dean's office developed an electronic system that permits department chairs/center directors and their designees to upload the post tenure review packet for the Dean's approval. The Institutional Post Tenure Review Committee was appointed to provide peer reviews for:

  • Department Chairs
  • Administrators holding a tenured faculty appointment
  • Faculty members with a rating of "Does Not Meet Expectations" or "Unsatisfactory" by their department peer review committee
  • Tenured faculty whose departments have insufficient peers to perform departmental peer review

Once the committee meets and reviews all submissions, a final recommendation is made for the Dean's approval.
