Key:  % Tenured = # Tenured/# Eligible * 100. University policy is to grant tenure at time of promotion to Associate Professor. If promotion is not achieved, faculty member is terminated, so there are no tenured faculty at the Assistant Professor level.

Note: Counts include regular faculty (active or on sabbatical leave) on the Newark campus and the University Associate in Arts Program. Visiting faculty are excluded.
