Faculty Committee

This committee reviewed a variety of issues related to the faculty at UT Dallas. The University demonstrated that it had an adequate faculty as well as a faculty that had members qualified to teach in the areas they were assigned. As a part of this review process, this committee reviewed the University's credentialing process, which included the verification of foreign credentials. Additionally, the transcripts of every faculty member who received a graduate degree at an institution outside the United States were reviewed by an outside agency to ensure the credentials were equivalent to similar credentials earned at accredited universities in the U.S.
