ADEPT Team

Understanding that the equitable advancement of faculty requires the clear communication of standards and best practices to candidates and evaluators, many Georgia Tech faculty have contributed to the ADEPT project. In 2002-2003, the Promotion and Tenure ADVANCE Committee (PTAC), appointed by Provost Jean-Lou Chameau and chaired by David McDowell, developed the core contents. In collaboration with PTAC members, Carol Colatrella and David McDowell wrote case studies and related materials. Research funds from the Georgia Tech NSF ADVANCE Institutional Transformation Program supported the PTAC design team in developing the instrument.
