College Leadership

The College of Arts & Sciences is the largest academic unit at the University of Miami, home to more than 4,000 undergraduate students, more than 600 graduate students, and 440 full-time faculty members across 20 departments and eight interdisciplinary programs. The successful operation of such a large and complex organization requires strong and thoughtful leadership from men and women who are deeply committed to our students' success and our continual improvement as an institution.

The dean, his staff, and his advisory committees work hard to deliver the highest quality liberal arts education for our undergraduates, to attract and maintain a diverse and accomplished faculty, to provide ample student resources and support services, and to engage in meaningful ways with the broader Miami community.
