Annual Performance Review
Department chairs are required to provide each full-time faculty member in their department with a written summary of their annual performance review. Basic science departments and the clinical science departments based at University Hospitals use a common electronic website or a Word document of the same format for the performance review. Faculty at the Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine and the MetroHealth System are evaluated using their hospital's form.
Pre-Tenure Review
Tenure track faculty members in their third and sixth pre-tenure years must be evaluated by their department's Committee on Appointments, Promotions, and Tenure (DCAPT). These evaluations shall address the faculty member's:
- knowledge of academic field and commitment to continuing development of this competence
- dedication to effective teaching
- commitment to a continuing program of research or other advanced creative activity
- willingness to assume a fair share of university administrative and service tasks.
Reviews take place in the spring of the appropriate year and are managed by the Faculty Affairs Office.
