The Office of Academic Affairs is dedicated to advancing the academic mission of the University, and to supporting the academic centers and divisions of the University in achieving their respective goals. We seek to facilitate the learning, informational retrieval, scholarship and research of students, faculty, and staff on campus and in field-based and online programs. With a focus on learning, we employ a range of strategies to support innovation, collaboration across centers, and university-wide discussion and decision-making. We are committed to achieving the highest levels of academic excellence.
