Category 2: Non-tenure-track core faculty members whose graduate involvement is exclusively in the graduate program under review.
Category 3: Tenured or tenure-track core faculty members who are involved in teaching and/or supervision in other graduate program(s) in addition to being a core member of the graduate program under review.
Category 4: Non-tenure track core faculty members who are involved in teaching and/or supervision in other graduate program(s) in addition to being a core member of the graduate program under review.
Category 5: Other core faculty: this category may include emeritus professors with supervisory privileges and persons appointed from government laboratories or industry as adjunct professors. Please explain who would fall into this category at your institution.
Category 6: Non-core faculty who participate in the teaching of graduate courses.
*Gender is an optional category to include in the faculty breakdown.
