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 are either assistant or associate professors and want to advance must go through a nine to 18 month-plus promotion cycle. Promotions are now approved twice per year, and there are no deadlines to apply.

We applaud these 23 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 CCLCM Faculty Affairs Promotions to learn more. All applications are submitted online via our portal. There is no deadline for submitting a promotion application.
