The University of Minnesota Board of Regents invites nominations, expressions of interest, and applications for the position of president.
The University of Minnesota is a multi-campus, complex, and top-ranked public research institution, and the president must be adept at managing a vast and diverse enterprise, which includes five campuses throughout Minnesota, a full array of undergraduate, graduate, and professional programs, a $1.2 billion sponsored research portfolio, a large and complex portfolio of academic health sciences, NCAA Division I, II, and III athletics, and a host of statewide programs. This next leader should have demonstrated experience leading in this type of setting, whether at a comparable university or as the leader of a similarly complex organization.
Reporting to the Board of Regents, the president of the University of Minnesota holds a unique role as both leader of the five-campus system and of the Twin Cities campus. The president works closely with the Board to shape a vision for the system and execute strategies to achieve excellence in fulfilling the University's three-part, land-grant mission of teaching, research, and outreach.
As one of the state's most prominent public leaders, the president is responsible for connecting the University to the people of the State of Minnesota and serves as an important thought leader and advocate for the University, for student success and engagement, and for the value of higher education, academic freedom, and freedom of expression.
