Published: 31 October 2016
Details and timescales here. Apply by 20 January 2017.
Dear Colleagues
I am pleased to advise that the Academic Promotions round for 2016-17 is now open.
As outlined in August, there have been several key changes to Academic Promotion for the 2016-17 round, which were agreed through an extensive consultation and feedback exercise delivered by a number of working groups and overseen by Senior Vice-Principal, Professor Neal Juster.
The key improvements implemented are:
- A clearer promotion track for those on LTS contracts
- A greater emphasis on 4* outputs within the Publications criteria to remain competitive in the sector
- New elements within the Knowledge Exchange criteria to reflect the growing roles of Knowledge Exchange and Impact within government policy, including the REF
- Full alignment of criteria across all Colleges.
You can find further details of the enhancements in the Campus eNews article from August 2016.
