Provost's News
UNCW seeks an outstanding, visionary, collaborative, and experienced leader to serve as provost and vice chancellor for academic affairs. Reporting to the chancellor and serving as a key member of the executive cabinet, the provost is the university’s chief academic officer, responsible for the strategic direction, administration, and oversight of all academic programs and initiatives. The next leader will build upon UNCW’s strong academic foundation and reputation for excellence.
We are aware there are questions about the impact that federal and state actions may have on our operations – particularly around funded research, grants, and educational programs. We are closely monitoring what continues to be an evolving landscape with rapid changes.
