Reappointments
Third Year Reviews are conducted by the School's to not only serve as basis for a decision concerning a renewal of the appointment for an additional period of time, but also to provide the Assistant Professor with an informed evaluation of her/his teaching, research and service and advice in regards to their focus for the next appointment period.
Third year reviews are to be undertaken by the Chair of each department and a departmental committee comprising the Tenured Faculty in the department. The third year review should cover all aspects of the faculty member's performance that would be considered during the Tenure process. The department submits their recommendations to the Dean. The Dean makes the final determination on the third year reappointment. Third year reviews are conducted in accordance with the University Academic Reappointment/Promotion Instructions.
