Clash of the Colleges: Join the Alliance!

Challenges: Update Assessment, Incentive and Reward Processes UniSCOPE model of scholarship for the 21st Century Expansion of the traditional tenure and promotion model incorporating newly recognized forms of scholarship UniSCOPE provides an alignment of tenure and promotion with innovation and creativity at Wichita State University.
