Faculty-Tenure-Commission

 

The tenure-track procedure is a modern instrument for appointing new professors. After positive evaluations, the tenure-track professorship, which is a temporary professorship, is transferred to a permanent professorship. To ensure the quality of the process, the procedure is supervised by three commissions: the Faculty-Tenure-Commission, the RWTH-Tenure-Commission and the Tenure-Evaluation-Commission.

The Faculty-Tenure-Commission comes into play after a tenured professorship has been recommended. The members of the Faculty-Tenure-Commission establish the criteria against which the tenure professorship is evaluated and forward them as a recommendation to the RWTH Tenure Commission. The voting members are composed of university professors, academic staff, and students.
