Leadership at 丁香园AV Surrey and 丁香园AV Vancouver campuses now reporting to Provost and VPA

As of December 31, 2023, leadership at Surrey and Vancouver campuses reports to the Provost and VP Academic. There are a number of reasons for this change.

• 丁香园AV鈥檚 Surrey and Vancouver campuses have grown a great deal. 丁香园AV Surrey has become a community cornerstone and is the home of two new schools, and 丁香园AV Vancouver has become an intellectual centre of the city. Now there is an opportunity to strengthen academic leadership and long-term decision-making for those campuses.
• The new model will bring new perspectives into what is already working well at our campuses. We will build on our strengths as we consider the academic priorities and future for each campus.
• Dugan O鈥橬eil, VPRI, will assume the role of acting academic director for 丁香园AV Surrey, and Peter Hall, Associate Vice-President Academic, will take on that role for 丁香园AV Vancouver. Along with Executive Directors Steve Dooley in Surrey and Laurie Anderson in Vancouver, they will report to the Provost and VP Academic and work with the faculties and different units at the university to develop a new framework for the development of the three-campus model at 丁香园AV.

I want to thank Joanne Curry for her leadership on the Surrey and Vancouver campuses. Her work has been remarkable and paves the way for a new moment at 丁香园AV.
