Instructions for the
Preparation of Electronic Promotion and Tenure Dossiers
Items provided by the Candidate
-
Compile all documents to be submitted with Dossier according to the
guidelines outlined in the current issue of the Handbook for Faculty, pages
17-18. The only difference is that in the SOM
we are asking
faculty
to submit the materials electronically, rather than in hard copy. There is a
new Summary Page available at:
http://www.makoid.com/ucrt/ - please make sure you
include it, and note that if you have a secondary appointment, the Chair of
that Department should also write a "Chair's Letter"!
-
Please make sure to provide all
Course Evaluations and
Student Evaluations you have received for the past 5 years - these will no
longer be provided by the Office of Medical education, and are an essential
component of the Dossier.
-
Files comprising different sections of the Dossier should be submitted
individually, using the sections listed in the Handbook for Faculty,
pages 17-18, i.e. separate files for CV, Faculty Profile, supporting
documents etc. Items described in section vi. (publications, books,
monographs etc), may all be included in the same file.
-
Documents that are already in electronic format (ex: Word) can be saved as
pdf files with Adobe Professional or other software that allows creation of
pdf files.
-
Documents that are available only in hard copy (ex: published papers not
available online from the journal) should be scanned into pdf files. This
can be done with a scanner, copier/scanner or at places such as Kinko’s
-
Items that are not “practical” to scan (ex: an authored textbook where the
entire book should be reviewed) may be submitted in hard copy (2 copies).
They will be returned after the R&T cycle is completed.
-
Documents can be sent to the Office of Academic & Faculty Affairs either as
email attachments, on a CD, or USB flash drive (please put your name on it -
we will return it to you).
Items added by CUSOM
The Office of Academic and Faculty Affairs will
then add to the electronic dossier, the following items:
- A
summary of job effort distribution, as derived from the original letter of
offer AND any subsequent amendments as documented in the Annual Performance
Review and the MBM database. This will be compiled by the Associate Dean for
Academic and Faculty Affairs.
- Chair Letter (s) (preferably submitted electronically by Chair)
- Letters of reference (Peers, students)
- CME Evaluations
