Status Score Responsible Party

This credit was marked as Not Applicable for the following reason:

Research is not considered in faculty promotion or tenure decisions as a matter of policy or standard practice

Given the nature of NAIT being a polytechnic institute, the vast majority of research conducted is applied and relevant to industry partners and the student learning experience. NAIT faculty research what they teach. Research programs are built into NAIT's 5 schools (DCICE excluded), where our faculty and their teams conduct applied research. This relationship provides complete career relevance for our students, and a quick response to our industry partners' needs for new technology, systems and products. Research is not considered in faculty promotion or tenure.
