5.05 - Promotion and Continuing Appointment Evaluations
The Vice Provost provides promotion and continuing appointment information for the University of Arizona as a part of their Provost guidelines.
As a "land grant" The University of Arizona is dedicated to serving the people of Arizona and responding to the critical needs of the day. While all universities engage in research and teaching, the nation's more than 100 land-grant colleges and universities have a third critical mission -- extension (outreach or engagement). Faculty guidelines can help document one's involvement as part of the engaged university and can identify ways to measure excellence. The College of Agriculture and Life Sciences by virtue of its mission as a founding component of this land grant institution, the University of Arizona, faces issues related to faculty evaluation that differ from other UA colleges.
