Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost

‍

North Carolina State University invites applications for the position of Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost (provost).

In 1887, NC State was founded to teach “agriculture and the mechanic arts” to enterprising North Carolinians who wanted to access the opportunities and benefits of higher education. Today we’re a Research 1 institution that has become the state’s flagship STEM university, educating students from all over the world. Our students have an incoming GPA of 4.34, and they learn at an institution that was named a top producer of Fulbright scholars in 2025. They also receive an unparalleled experiential education on our Centennial Campus, where university academic units work alongside corporate, government and nonprofit partners. Thanks to our signature combination of quality and affordability, NC State consistently ranks as one of the nation’s best values in higher education, which is why our students graduate with lower-than-average debt. NC State is located in North Carolina’s Research Triangle region, known across the country for its strong economy, high-tech industry clusters, good weather and beautiful surroundings.

NC State’s most important asset is something that can’t be measured: the spirit of community that is felt throughout the campus and all its facilities across the state. NC State is the largest university in North Carolina, but every day our students, faculty and staff make it into a home where they all belong as part of the Wolfpack.

NC State University seeks a provost who will lead the institution on a continued trajectory of growth and improvement while staying focused on the core mission of improving communities — big and small, global and local — through teaching, research and outreach.
