Membership

In the case of a non-tenure-track faculty recruitment, the Dean and/or Chair will designate a committee to conduct the search for the position. When constituting the search committee, attention should be given to the composition of its membership with respect to academic discipline, research area (or other more appropriate area of responsibility) and rank. It is essential that committee members bring a variety of perspectives to the recruitment process.

The search committee:

• Is encouraged to include 4 - 6 members, but must have a minimum of 4 members;
• Is encouraged, but not required, to include one member from either outside the recruiting department or outside the recruiting college or school;
• Should not be Chaired by the recruiting department Chairperson; and
• Must share in the campus-wide commitment to recruiting a diverse workforce.

Approval

Search committee membership information should be submitted in the "Position Details" tab in PeopleAdmin. Approval of the requisition in PeopleAdmin will indicate approval of the search committee membership.
