Athletics Director

UC San Diego’s move to NCAA Division I has created a dynamic opportunity for the Athletics Director to lead a 24-sport, 600-athlete program rooted in academic excellence, innovation, and competitive success. The AD serves as a strategic leader responsible for guiding staff, facilities, and programs while shaping the scholar-athlete experience through values-driven leadership, community engagement, and campus collaboration. With major investments in facilities, technology, and partnerships like the Wu Tsai Human Performance Alliance, the AD will help position UC San Diego as a national model for integrating elite athletics with a world-class research mission.
