Dossier

To present a case for promotion or tenure requires explicit documentation of your accomplishments, both to satisfy ‘satisfactory’ levels and to demonstrate excellence.

Key resources:

Documenting your teaching; all faculty with teaching responsibilities must have peer reviews, student evaluations, and reflection on teaching improvement.
Collecting research and other impact metrics
Keeping track of service and other activities, DMAI

Guides to Dossier Contents

Zip file which replicates the eDossier structure

In the main Guidelines document, there are sections which show screenshots of every folder in eDossier as well as descriptions of what the section includes.

Candidates generally will use some but not all sections, depending on their area of excellence and type of appointment.

Main eDossier folders should contain details and substantiation (evidence) for statements made in the candidate statement.

Appendices generally contain raw material (actual articles, actual peer or student evaluations) or school-specific requirements (e.g. grant applications or reviews).

Use these instead of uploading materials into each separate eDossier folder.
