As resources grow scarcer , universities have become reluctant to increase the long-term institutional commitments involved in faculty appointments with tenure. The restrict tenured appointments, universities in recent years have adopted more stringent criteria for approving them and in many cases have set a limit on the number of new appointments and promotions with tenure. The educational and service missions of the medical school, however, necessitate a large cadre of clinical faculty members. The establishment and evolution of the clinician-educator faculty track at the University of Pennsylvania provide a case study of a process taking place in many medical schools to meet the need for nontenured full-time faculty appointments.
随着资源日益稀缺，大学已不愿增加终身教职任用中涉及的长期机构投入。为限制终身教职任用，近年来大学采用了更严格的审批标准，并且在许多情况下对终身教职的新任用和晋升数量设定了限制。然而，医学院的教育和服务使命需要大量临床教员。宾夕法尼亚大学临床教师-教育工作者职业发展路径的建立和演变，为许多医学院为满足非终身全职教员任用需求而进行的过程提供了一个案例研究。
