This important committee carefully reviews faculty appointments and applications for promotion and advises the chair prior to review by the parent Baylor Faculty Appointments and Promotions Committee. This review process is invaluable, and it has greatly increased the number of faculty promotion approvals from the parent committee. Your committee service is important to the department and your contribution through your service will be appreciated. Dr. Robert Atmar is the chair of the committee. The term of service is three years.
