coe-staff: New 2019 Institutional Hiring Plan Call for Proposals

[Randy Kamphaus]

Dear Faculty,

Information about the 2019 Institutional Hiring Plan (IHP) is now available on the Office of the Provost (OtP) website at 2019 Institutional Hiring Plan<https://provost.uoregon.edu/ay2019-20-institutional-hiring-plan>. The IHP will be announced campus-wide on November 9. I am announcing the IHP to our faculty now in order to provide us with more time to prepare compelling proposals.

Our Department Heads met this week to create a process for soliciting and evaluating proposals for new tenure-related faculty hires from academic program area faculty. Our schedule is,

1. Faculty will submit two-page "concept papers" to their academic department heads by December 1, 2018. Proposals should be responsive to the priorities of the college as outlined in our 2017 strategic framework, and the priorities, operational, and research metrics available on the IHP website https://provost.uoregon.edu/institutional-metrics. As reminder, our COE strategic priorities are:

  *   Accelerate our faculty and student research, scholarship, and knowledge creation. Utilize our preeminent research tradition to conduct and advance translational research that positively transforms and impacts society.
  *   Transform students' ability to critically evaluate and engage in science-based practices to support and improve educational and social service settings locally, regionally, nationally, and globally.
  *   Collaborate with communities of practice (schools, social and human service agencies) through research and outreach that enhances our impact, while addressing critical societal needs. Increase our interdisciplinary reach by working with other researchers at the UO and other educational institutions.
  *   Grow and expand a culture of equity, respect, and inclusion. Build on individual differences to frame the questions we ask and the practices we adopt in enhancing inclusion and access for all.
  *   Partner with our University to create a financial model that ensures and sustains a successful research infrastructure to enhance our college.

2. Academic department heads will review and evaluate all concept paper submissions against the priorities and metrics, and identify overlapping and synergistic proposals by December 15.

3. Approved IHP "concepts" will be returned to academic program area faculty with a request to develop full proposals for submission to the IHP by January 15, 2019. Details about formatting of these proposals will be forthcoming.

4. Department heads will evaluate the full proposals, and provide a priority ranking to me by January 28, 2019.

5. I will submit a final ranked list of proposals for submission to the IHP by the OtP deadline of February 8, 2019.

Thanks, everyone, for your participation. I look forward to another opportunity to add new colleagues to our ranks.

Regards,

Randy
