Promotion and tenure mark major milestones in the academic lives of NC State faculty. Promoted faculty have met rigorous standards in their realms of responsibility, and tenured faculty have made a significant impact in their discipline. This year, we recognize 141 faculty for these achievements.
“Our faculty set the bar for excellence in higher education teaching, research, service and extension” said Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost Warwick Arden. “Earning promotion or tenure showcases their dedication to both their respective fields and to the university.”
Promoted and tenured faculty in all disciplines play an integral role in advancing NC State’s mission and vision, and in achieving the university’s strategic goals to better serve fellow faculty, staff, students and the greater community.
“When a faculty member is promoted or granted tenure, it is a celebration of their hard work, and they should be exceedingly proud of their accomplishment,” said Senior Vice Provost for Faculty Excellence Kim Grainger. “Our faculty are not only building their academic careers, but also positively impacting students and colleagues in many ways. I look forward to their continued growth and success at NC State.”
Congratulations to all newly-promoted and tenured faculty for their accomplishments and significant contributions to the success of academics at NC State.
