The Graduate School is an administrative unit. Non-tenure track faculty in the unit have assignments in administration. Criteria for non-tenure-track faculty promotions focus on degree, time-in-service, and performance. Overall performance is reviewed in the annual evaluation process, which determines recommendations for promotion as well as salary actions and retention.
