The successful candidate will be a student-centered advocate for the academic needs of the university who is deeply committed to ensuring that students, faculty, and staff have the resources and support needed to succeed. The EVPAA will join a dynamic and highly motivated president and leadership team and play an integral role in helping the university “define tomorrow.” This is an exciting opportunity to build on the university’s rich history of excellence and help guide the strategic re-envisioning of the university amid a changing higher education landscape, new technologies, and complex local and global problems.
The EVPAA is the chief academic officer of the university and serves as its second-most senior leader. Reporting to the president of the university, the EVPAA oversees academic and institutional strategic planning for both campuses and plays a significant role in the budgeting process and allocation of resources. The EVPAA is also an active participant in the Chief Academic Officers’ Council of the University of Maine System, working collaboratively with other System universities and the Law School to ensure academic excellence and innovation in teaching and learning, including advancing new academic degree and program offerings.
