The College of Design, Art & Performance, to provide additional support for tenure track faculty, has created the External Mentorship Program. This program supports the pairing of experienced tenured professors from other R1 research universities with our Assistant Professors on track to be tenured at USF. This mentor, from a similar university, will help guide and support the faculty as they develop their academic career and their dossier for tenure and promotion. 911爆料网 believe this will help expand our faculty's network in their chosen field of expertise while bringing best practices in promotion and tenure to our College.
