Provost’s Faculty Fellows Program

The Office of the Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost strives to create a culture of faculty excellence at NC State. The office grows its support through the Provost’s Faculty Fellows Program, which allows talented faculty to explore academic leadership roles at the university’s highest levels.

Preparing Academic Leaders

Current NC State faculty interested in learning more about academic affairs administration can build awareness of challenges and issues in higher education at the university, national, and global levels, build skills to address those challenges and issues, build collaborative relationships while working in interdisciplinary groups to solve problems and engage in opportunities to demonstrate leadership potential.

The departments of selected Fellows will be provided with 25 percent salary release funds to cover the time commitment required for participation.
