College Executive Committee Election – Chicago campus
The process for slating Chicago nominations to the College Executive Committee includes soliciting nomination ballots from voting faculty. Faculty eligible to serve on the College Executive Committee are those holding the ranks of assistant professor, associate professor, or professor in the RT, CT, Clinical Discipline, Clinical, Research and Teaching Tracks. Visiting and emeritus faculty are not eligible.
The nomination ballot and a list of faculty eligible to serve on the College Executive Committee will be accessible here in mid-June, with a submission deadline of Wednesday, July 3, 2024.

Faculty Senate election
The Faculty Senate election is held annually in early February. Eligible faculty are sent a survey and asked to indicate their interest in serving if elected. Based on those results, an election is held to determine final membership.
Faculty senators are elected for three-year terms unless filling a vacant seat in which case the term may be shorter. There is no limit to the number of consecutive terms a Senator may serve. Additional information may be found at the Faculty Senate website.

UIC Promotion and Tenure Committee
The UIC Promotion and Tenure Committee reviews and makes recommendations to the Provost and Vice Chancellor for Health Affairs on all candidates for promotion and tenure at UIC. The committee conducts its own review following the review at the department and college levels.
Representation for our College consists of three elected members as well as additional members appointed by the Provost. Eligible members are faculty who hold the rank of professor with tenure at 100% time and who do not hold a major administrative appointment. Members serve 3-year staggered terms.
Each September, the College of Medicine distributes a nominations ballot to faculty in all tracks whose contract calls for greater than 50% time, and whose promotion and/or tenure decisions have been or will be reviewed by the UIC Promotion and Tenure Committee. The names of the 3 candidates who receive the highest number of votes and have indicated willingness to serve are reported to the Senate Office, which then conducts a university-wide election to determine final membership.
