FACULTY POSITION REQUEST TRACKING

Faculty position requests are generated by the academic department, working closely with their Dean and the College HR liaison. The Dean advocates for the position with the Provost, who must bring the position forward to two groups – the USM University-Wide position review team, and also the UMS Chief Academic Officers.

The Chief Academic Officers review faculty positions typically once a year – in August. Once the Chief Academic Officers have reviewed the materials, they make a position search recommendation to the Chancellor. Ultimately, the decision to move forward with faculty searches rests with the Chancellor.

The tracking below is primarily for USM use, as a frequently asked question is “what is the status of the faculty position request.”
