Yes
A brief description or a copy of the institution’s policy regarding interdisciplinary research:
Interdisciplinary research and teaching are valued in the tenure and promotion process. The College's criteria for reappointment, promotion, and tenure are as follows (in order of importance): 1. Intellectual leadership – lecturing, leading discussions, guiding student research; 2. Professional achievement – excellent work in one's field recognized outside of Pomona College, scholarly productivity in the form of books, significant articles, the completion of publishable manuscripts, or artistic creation or performance; and 3. Effective service to the department, Pomona College, and the Claremont Colleges, to one's discipline and professional organizations, in activities such as committee work that support the common educational and scholarly enterprise. Interdisciplinary research is to be assessed within the criterion of professional achievement. Although all professors are appointed to a department, professors can be given a joint or a hybrid appointment in which the professor is contracted to teach partially or mostly for an interdisciplinary program. Professors can also be formally or informally affiliated with an interdisciplinary program. In the procedures for reappointment, promotion, and tenure, if a candidate is jointly appointed, the second department or program compiles its own dossier or reviews the dossier presented by the first department. If a candidate has received a hybrid appointment, the program and the department share equally in the review, with both the program and the department submitting an independent letter of evaluation. If a candidate is affiliated with a program, a letter from the program is included in the candidate's dossier.
