Seeking a promotion represents an important step in a faculty member’s career. A promotion demonstrates not only a faculty member’s dedication to teaching, research and professional service, but also a commitment to their career and engagement in the profession.

Faculty who currently are either an assistant or associate professor and wish to advance must go through a one year-plus promotion cycle. We applaud these 49 faculty members who took the time to attain their promotion and thank them for the service they provide in developing future physician investigators at CCLCM.

FACULTY: If you wish to be promoted, please visit the CCLCM Faculty Affairs Promotions page to learn more. All applications are submitted online via our portal. There is no deadline for submitting a promotion application.
