Promotion

Promotion To Next Rank

APT promotion workshops are offered regularly to support each faculty cohort throughout the promotion process. These sessions begin around the middle of the fall semester and continue through January, prior to the submission deadline. The APT promotion process is facilitated through Watermark/Digital Measures (W/DM) Workflow. For a complete list of workshop dates and times, please visit the Watermark/Digital Measures Training Sessions and Workshops page. 

Before beginning the process of preparing the Academic Professional Track Dossier, candidates should review the departmental and/or college guidelines for promotion.

For assistance with the promotion process, please email facultysuccess@uta.edu. If you need assistance with W/DM, please email dmhelp@uta.edu.
