Standards of Academe

The Office of the Provost is committed to academic excellence and collaborates with the academic units to establish standards for teaching, scholarship/creative activities, and service.  These standards, called "Standards of Academe," provide faculty and administration with clear expectations and criteria for making progress toward promotion and tenure as well as merit. 

An overview of these standards can be found in the Provost’s Presentation on the Evaluation of Tenured/Tenure Track Faculty (PDF).  For a detailed description of the standards for each school, use the links below.
