“The achievements of this year’s promotion and tenure recipients reflect their commitment to academic excellence, teaching and scholarship that serves our students and supports Concordia’s growing reputation nationally and internationally,” says Graham Carr, provost and vice-president, Academic.
“We’re proud to celebrate these gifted faculty and librarians. They are instrumental in securing our position as a next-generation university and they contribute meaningfully to ensuring Concordia’s overall success and well-being.”
