Fairleigh Dickinson University
THE MISSION
Fairleigh Dickinson University is a center of academic excellence dedicated to the preparation of world citizens through globaleducation. The University strives to provide students with
the multidisciplinary, intercultural and ethical understandings
necessary to participate, lead and prosper in the global marketplace of ideas, commerce and culture.
EXTRAORDINARY OPPORTUNITY FOR A SUCCESSFUL
ACADEMIC LEADER
The President, faculty and administration of Fairleigh Dickinson University in-vite applications for the position of University Provost from highly experienced academic administrators with a record of successful leadership in a broadly diver-sified university setting.
Fairleigh Dickinson is a distinctive multicampus university with a tradition of commitment to global education. With two New Jersey campuses, close to Man-hattan, and two international campuses (Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, and Wroxton, Oxfordshire, England), the University infuses the curriculum with global perspectives, provides abundant international and cosmopolitan educa-tional experiences and hosts a significant internaeduca-tional student population. In recent years, the University has grown not only in the geographic spread of its campuses but also through aggressive expansion of academic programs from cer-tificate through doctoral level. The University is poised from a position of solid strength to launch further expansion of academic programs to keep pace with the rapidly changing needs of a global society in business, science, engineering, med-ical, health, government, technology, security and many other fields — all with a strong arts and sciences core.
For the new University Provost who will provide leadership for such geographic breadth and academic scope, the University seeks a seasoned scholar and success-ful academic administrator with significant line-authority experience in a mid-size university of similar complexity. The position offers an extraordinary
opportunity to provide high-level academic leadership in a setting at the edge of one of the world’s greatest urban centers.
ABOUT FAIRLEIGH DICKINSON UNIVERSITY
For nearly 75 years, Fairleigh Dickinson University has been a leading force in preparing world citizens. The University was founded in 1942 by Dr. Peter Sam-martino and his wife, Sylvia (Sally). Long before other institutions recognized the importance of global education, Dr. Sammartino emphasized international les-sons and partnerships with international organizations. The institution grew quickly, and today is New Jersey’s largest private university. More than 12,000 stu-dents from 32 states and 72 countries are currently enrolled on the University’s two campuses in northern New Jersey and its international campuses in Wroxton, England, and Vancouver, Canada.
Beginning as a two-year junior college in Rutherford, N.J., Fairleigh Dickinson expanded to a four-year curriculum in 1948 to fill the need for higher education in northern New Jersey. In 1954, the first graduate program, a master’s degree in business administration, was offered, and Bergen Junior College in Teaneck N.J., was purchased as a second campus (now the Metropolitan Campus). In 1956, Fairleigh Dickinson gained University status and, one year later, the 178-acre Vanderbilt-Twombly estate in Madison, N.J., was acquired to serve as a third campus (now the Florham Campus).
FDU became the first American university to own a campus in England when it purchased Wroxton College from Trinity College, Oxford University. The cam-pus, opened in 1965, has recently expanded its offerings. In 2007, the University
opened its newest campus in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, and that campus has expanded rapidly in terms of the number of students and the pro-grams offered.
Over the years, FDU has maintained its commitment to broadening global hori-zons and fostering international understanding. In 2000, the Board of Trustees adopted a newly focused mission for FDU: To prepare world citizens through global education. A series of recent highlights have particularly reinforced this global mission. Through the United Nations Pathways program, FDU regularly brings ambassadors and diplomats to campus. FDU also became one of the first universities in the country to earn accreditation as a nongovernmental organiza-tion (NGO) with the U.N. Department of Public Informaorganiza-tion and is the first university to earn special consultative status with the U.N. Economic and Social Council. FDU also features Global Virtual FacultyTMand created Global Scholars and Florham Scholars programs to emphasize global themes and activities. Overall, FDU offers more than 100 undergraduate and graduate degree programs, including doctoral programs in nursing practice, clinical psychology, school psy-chology and pharmacy, and an AACSB-accredited business college. The Univer-sity’s size and diversity provide FDU with unique opportunities. As noted, FDU is well-known internationally but FDU also works very closely with the local communities and offers programs in almost every county in the state. While pro-viding the offerings of a comprehensive university, each campus features a close-knit community with a low student-faculty ratio where learners have unique access to and personal attention from a world-class collection of scholars. And FDU’s two New Jersey campuses make it one of just a few schools in the nation to field both Division I and Division III athletics teams.
CAMPUSES
Fairleigh Dickinson University offers a constellation of unique-learning environ-ments, all connected and united under the University’s mission. FDU campuses are based in diverse regions, from the suburban environs of Northern New Jersey to the old-world charm of Oxfordshire, England, to cosmopolitan Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Students on the two main New Jersey campuses come primarily from the Northeast with students from New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania predominating. Not surprisingly, however, FDU boasts one of the largest international student populations among its peer institutions.
Florham Campus
The Florham Campus is located on a former Vanderbilt-Twombly estate in Madison and Florham Park, N.J. The bucolic campus features Georgian-style buildings and picturesque grounds that were designed by Frederick Law Olmsted. Here, students find a classic liberal arts experience — the majority of undergradu-ates live on campus — in a small college setting. Students have access to a wide range of undergraduate programs and hands-on learning experiences (such as in-ternships, student/faculty research and study abroad), strong graduate and profes-sional school preparation and customized educational options (from double majors to specialized minors).
Metropolitan Campus
Stretching along both sides of the Hackensack River, the Metropolitan Campus lies in Teaneck and Hackensack, N.J., just six miles from New York City. The
campus features a comprehensive university atmosphere with a full complement of professional and career-oriented degree programs. Nearly equal numbers of graduate and undergraduate students study here, along with the majority of the University’s international students. Undergraduate studies emphasize practical, career-oriented and hands-on experiences (such as cooperative education and in-ternships). Accelerated bachelor’s/master’s options are among its many profes-sional programs, and selected doctoral programs are available.
Wroxton College
Wroxton College is located in the ancestral home of Lord North at Wroxton Abbey in Oxfordshire. Wroxton lies in the heart of England, between Oxford and Stratford-upon-Avon, just 75 miles from London. Originally constructed as an Augustinian priory in 1215, Wroxton Abbey has been home to statesmen and host to monarchs; now, undergraduate and graduate students walk the same halls and live in the same rooms that royalty once did. The college offers a large num-ber of courses in literature, history, political science, fine arts and sociology. Courses are taught using the tutorial method employed in British universities. Students also regularly enjoy educational excursions throughout England and Europe and meet and interact with leading political and cultural figures. Wroxton College is one of an elite group of 13 colleges in the United Kingdom that have earned ASIC Premier College status by the Accreditation Service for Interna-tional Colleges (ASIC).
Vancouver Campus
The University’s newest campus, FDU’s Vancouver Campus, opened in 2007 in a newly renovated, state-of-the-art facility in the city’s historic and cosmopolitan Yaletown section of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The campus primarily serves international students and includes selected undergraduate and graduate degree programs in business administration, information technology and individ-ualized studies as well as a master of administrative science graduate degree. The Vancouver Campus features a diverse learning environment and offers students the rare opportunity to earn an American degree while studying in Canada. FDU’s accrediting body, the Middle States Commission on Higher Education, called the Vancouver Campus a model international branch campus. The campus has grown rapidly both in terms of the number of students and the expansion of the learning space.
ACADEMIC PROGRAMS
Fairleigh Dickinson University offers degrees, from associate to Ph.D., in disci-plines and careers from the traditional liberal arts and sciences — philosophy to biology — to business and professional studies such as engineering, nursing, criminal justice, psychology, computer science and communication studies as well as the University’s highly ranked hotel and restaurant management school. The arts are represented by first-rate programs in theater, film and animation, graphic design, studio arts and creative writing. In addition, there are highly acclaimed honors programs on each campus. FDU is accredited by the Commission on Higher Education of the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools and is licensed by the New Jersey Commission on Higher Education. All FDU programs seek to earn and maintain the highest accreditation possible. For a complete list of accreditations, see http://fdu.edu/accreditation.

School of Pharmacy
Fairleigh Dickinson University established its School of Pharmacy, New Jer-sey’s first pharmacy school affiliated with an independent university. The school, which enrolled its first students in 2012, will help address the growing need for licensed pharmacists and prepare students to take leadership roles in a variety of health care-related industries and fields.

THE NEW UNIVERSITY PROVOST WILL:
1. Advance the University’s 2014–2019 Strategic Planthrough a consultative and collaborative process involving all campuses and stakeholders to lead the University’s shift toward 21st-century higher educa-tion, developing operational strategies and procedures to further crucial overarching imperatives of the University’s strategic plan: enhancing successful job placement of graduates, increasing the value of a Fairleigh Dickinson degree and strengthening the University’s commitment to global education. The new University Provost must bring strong and visionary leadership in academic programs, delivery, teaching and research to move the University aggressively toward fulfillment of the plan.
2. Balance Financial and Budget Realitieswith the myriad operational needs of the widely spread academic enterprise. The University Provost will co-chair the University Planning and Budget Committee providing visionary leadership to academic plans, advocacy for resources for the academic area, and oversight of the academic budget, while carefully balancing available fiscal and human resources with operational needs. The University Provost will infuse the planning process with creative, innovative, visionary ideas for new programs, technologies, research, services and activities that will be attractive to donors and students, will meet growing societal needs and will help sustain FDU’s enrollment growth.
3. Advocate for the Academic Enterprise above all else.The new University Provost needs to be an effective spokesperson for the academic enterprise, especially for faculty development, faculty expansion, academic program growth and innovation, technology improvements and services that will enrich academic quality, build the University’s reputation and brand and enhance student academic success. The University Provost will lead the charge for Fairleigh Dickinson to achieve the distinction it seeks as a high-quality, 21st-century global institution by hiring exceptional faculty, providing strong faculty professional-development opportunities and providing faculty the opportunity to teach and to do research with high-quality students. The new University Provost will speak vigorously in University leadership circles to be a voice for academic quality on behalf of the faculty on topics such as scholarship, research, tenure, promotion, teaching,
curriculum, student learning, technology and the totality of academic interests — thus enhancing the quality and value of FDU degrees and graduates.
4. Create and Maximize Opportunities for Student Success that will enhance the many programs and offices on individual campuses designed to help ensure student academic success, such as academic advising, academic intervention, tutoring and placement testing, as well as specialized student-assistance programs for transfer and international students. Career Development Centers on three campuses (Florham,
Metropolitan and Vancouver) serve as valuable resources offering students a variety of services to help them find a rewarding career. The new University Provost will take the lead creating a holistic vision across multiple offices and campuses to encourage student success from entry to graduation and job placement, maximizing FDU’s longstanding and pervasive commitment to student success.
5. Ensure Currency; Expand and Enhance Academic Programsthat will be required by employers hiring a labor force for the future. Fairleigh Dickinson University has thrived in recent years in part through rapid growth of new programs attractive to students and their parents and that have fueled an enrollment surge. With constantly changing needs of employers who are looking strategically to the future, the new
University Provost must be a visionary who stays on the cutting edges of future trends and needs and provides dynamic, inspirational leadership for faculty and academic leaders that will ensure constant evolution and change in curriculum, turning out quality graduates prepared to meet employers’ needs.
6. Generate Fundraising Opportunities for the Academic Enterpriseto build new academic initiatives, support faculty and student research and strengthen financial support for existing academic programs and activities. Working closely with the President, the Board of Trustees’ Educational Affairs Committee and development officers, the University Provost will inspire the academic community with imaginative,
creative ideas appropriate for 21st-century higher education and will work collaboratively to assist seeking gifts and grants that will enhance the academic enterprise and spawn a broad array of initiatives emanating from the strategic-planning process.
7. Inspire Innovationby building a culture that embraces creative approaches to solve existing and fore-seeable challenges, rewards inventive practices, applauds innovation and praises cutting-edge research. The whirlwind of economic, social, and political challenges in an age of rapid change requires a University Provost who will help build a 21st-century, higher-education institution that is nimble, responsive and unafraid of change; a University that produces graduates well-prepared for employers hiring the workforce of the future.
8. Build a More Cohesive University-wide Infrastructure,motivating collaboration to achieve a more interconnected, unified, systemic University-wide approach among offices scattered on the various campuses and other locations where academic programs are delivered. The new University Provost will enlist the best professional assistance to create a systems approach with technological and other applications/programs appropriate for 21st-century higher education that can join with dedicated human resources to create greater virtual delivery of services, enhance the efficiency of operations and help hold down or reduce costs.
9. Champion a University-wide Communitythrough a shared process that will build on the strong pre-vailing community spirit among faculty, staff and students on each of the campuses. The new University Provost will become a key advocate in leading the administration, faculty, and staff of all the campuses to build a sense of community across the physical distance of the campuses in unity around the University’s mission and strategic plan. The University Provost will create opportunities for communication and interaction among the various campus and location constituencies and will initiate programs and activities to encourage a university-wide culture of mutual support and teamwork.
10. Nurture Good Governancethrough ensuring an open and transparent academic community among faculty, administrators and students of all the campuses or online, encouraging a listening attitude and reasoned debate appropriate for an intellectual community and inviting appropriate participation in agreed upon areas of shared governance. The geographically dispersed campuses create unusual challenges to the practicality of sustaining high-quality shared governance, but the new University Provost should lead the way by personal example of being involved and involving others, listening, reasoning, transparently sharing, acting with humility and making defensible decisions.
