Departmental Criteria: The Boyer Model and Reappointment Tenure and Promotion

In accessing the various scholarships for the purpose of reappointment, tenure and promotion, the Department values the four categories of the Boyer model; Scholarship of Discovery, Scholarship of  Integration, Scholarship of Application and Scholarship of Teaching. As much as possible, reappointment, tenure, and promotion are evaluated using the mutually supportive, complementary, and often overlapping Boyer model categories. The department places greater weight on the scholarship of  Discovery and Integration than on the scholarship of Application and Teaching (except for the act of teaching) and assesses both the quality and the quantity of scholarly accomplishment.  Explanations and examples of categories are below.
