Governance

The University of Maine College of Education and Human Development believes in shared governance, where faculty play a role in strategic decision-making and institutional priorities. The documents below, including the college bylaws and promotion and tenure guidelines, structure how the college’s schools and programs, as well as individual faculty members, can achieve their goals. At the heart of our mission is a commitment to education and building a base of knowledge for students, families, teachers, schools, and higher education institutions in Maine and around the country to succeed.
