Promotion to Associate Professor in the Area of Distinction in Investigation will require an Established level of achievement in Investigation, assessed by measures such as the scope and quality of research, funding, development of technologies, leadership of research projects or core services, and service related to research expertise. For faculty who are not PIs or lab heads, the revised APP recognizes contributions to team science for those play an essential but not leading role in scientific projects, scholarly products and funding. In addition, promotion to Associate Professor will require achievements at Entry level in Education and Academic Service.
