Texas A&M University System institution partners with Interfolio
STEPHENVILLE, TX — January 28, 2021 — Tarleton State University, part of the Texas A&M University system, adopts Faculty Search and Review, Tenure and Promotion modules from Interfolio, provider of the leading Faculty Information System. With this new platform, faculty, applicants, and administrators benefit from consistent, digital workflows.
“As we look to strategically recruit faculty and increase faculty diversity, we realized we needed a system designed for academia, and Faculty Search meets that need,” stated Diane Taylor, Associate Provost of Curriculum Assessment and Faculty Affairs at Tarleton State. “Our manual process for review, promotion and tenure—first on paper, then as PDFs—was no longer serving us. We needed a digital-first approach to efficiently manage this committee-driven work.”
Tarleton State’s use of Interfolio’s Review, Tenure, and Promotion (RPT) module will streamline the faculty advancement process, eliminating delays and administrative burdens for those involved. Additionally, it will increase consistency and confidentiality with managed access to faculty documents.
To attract leading faculty, Tarleton State will adopt Faculty Search to ease the application process for candidates and streamline the experience for hiring committees.
“We are happy to extend our collaboration with the Texas A&M System with this new partnership with Tarleton State University,” stated Andrew Rosen, CEO of Interfolio. “Supporting an institution’s strategic goals—including helping with faculty talent, diversity, and advancement—is our main priority at Interfolio.”
Questions about the Interfolio implementation should be directed to Dr. Nate Heller (heller@tarleton.edu).
