This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity for a nationally respected, research-intensive leader to shape the future of the College of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences (CAES) at North Carolina A&T State University, the nation’s largest HBCU and a top-flight doctoral research institution. As a flagship land-grant college central to the University’s Preeminence 2030 agenda, CAES is poised for significant expansion in research activity, doctoral education, innovation, and statewide engagement. Backed by unprecedented momentum, public investment, and the Chancellor’s full commitment to CAES as a top institutional priority, the next Dean will lead a modern, high-impact college advancing discovery, economic development, and transformational public service across North Carolina and beyond.
CAES has been a cornerstone of instructional excellence and impactful research since the University’s founding in 1891 and remains a major driver of institutional success. As one of only two land-grant universities in North Carolina, N.C. A&T’s prolific research output and transformative economic impact of $2.4 billion on the state have positioned the University for sustained public investment, expanding partnerships, and accelerated national prominence.
