Promotion, Tenure, & Permanent Status
Promotion, tenure, and permanent status are major forms of recognition of accomplishments and contributions by faculty in accordance with the mission and objectives of UF/IFAS, and in accordance with procedures of the University academic community. Therefore, UF/IFAS makes every effort to base its recommendations for promotion, tenure, & permanent status on careful and judicious procedures which guarantee faculty rights and responsibilities established in the University's rule and which enable UF/IFAS to reward scholarship and professional achievement.
UF/IFAS Human Resources is responsible for ensuring that the UF/IFAS promotion, tenure, & permanent status procedures are followed. Contact Amanda Lovins or Janet Malphurs with any procedural questions.
