We support all faculty in their professional lives at the University of Colorado Denver | Anschutz Medical Campus.
We strive to support faculty to create an interdisciplinary community of faculty focused on scholarship and professional growth. We enhance faculty success in earning promotion and tenure, progressing in rank, growth as leaders in their department, and faculty's experience on our campus. We offer resources, programs, and services to best support faculty in their career, and in work/life balance associated with life as a scholar.

After years of working toward [full] professor rank, it’s often heartening to look over your accomplishments in research or creative activities, teaching, and service to see how much you’ve done. Deciding whether you are finally ready to apply for promotion to professor can be a difficult choice, though. This session will help you to make an informed decision about whether you’re ready, or how much longer you need to properly prepare. It will also help you to better envision the road ahead as a professor. This session is designed with tenured associate professors on the Denver Campus in mind. However, all are welcome to participate in this workshop. The session will include plenty of time for discussion.
Session goals:
