Promotion & Tenure

Promotion and Tenure Guidelines for the College of Public Health and Health Professions

Two of the most important types of decisions made in the University are those having to do with promotion and tenure.  They are the principal means by which the quality of the institution is maintained and developed (UF Regulation 7.019). The Promotion and Tenure process of the University of Florida operates in conjunction with the fiscal year. Eligible faculty members should begin the process no later than July 1 of each year (see Promotion and Tenure timeline). The University of Florida guidelines, the College of Public Health and Health Professions (PHHP) guidelines, and for the two shared governance departments (Epidemiology and Biostatistics), the PHHP/COM guidelines are all detailed in the documents found on this site. All applications for promotion and/or tenure at UF will be processed in the Faculty Excellence and Advancement (FEA) system.

The application template is in the new FEA system and is expected to be available May 12, 2025.  Your web browser should be set to allow pop-ups. Navigation forthcoming. Note: the template will open as a Word file, with some sections auto-populated with the candidate’s information.

Information can also be found about the Mid-Cycle Review (MCR) process and Post Tenure Review (PTR) process. For questions, contact Lorie Martin, Director of Human Resources for PHHP, at lomarti@phhp.ufl.edu or 352/273-6198.

To discuss Tenure Upon Hire (TUH), contact Lorie Martin or your Department Administrator.
