Provosts

The Campus Provost is a senior staff member that provides strong leadership in advancing the University's on-campus experience.

The Campus Provost plays a vital role in assisting the University to create a sense of place, through their leadership, by ensuring the campus is welcoming and accessible for staff, students and to local community groups. Campus Provosts represent the University and act as the local public face for their respective campus by working to build external relationships through the support of local community, regional and industry initiatives.
