Part-Time Status: In general and as it applies to tenure-eligible pathways

Part time employment may be an appropriate choice for some faculty members.  The availability of part time employment is at the sole discretion of Department Chair and the Dean, and depends on the needs of the College.  Only full time faculty members may be appointed on the three tenure-eligible pathways.

Full time faculty members who receive tenure and later wish to work part time in the College may do so only with the approval of the Chair and the Dean. [1]
