In September, Chancellor Jones announced the Strategic Hiring Initiative (see massmail) that offers resources to pursue faculty members who will enhance our campus’ research and innovation, teaching excellence, and collaborations. We are pleased to announce the request form is open for units to submit requests for funding support through this initiative. Learn more about the funding guidelines.
This multi-year Strategic Hiring Initiative provides an exciting opportunity for our campus to attract excellent and diverse faculty to meet our objective of being the pre-eminent public research university with a land grant mission.
Please contact Amy Santos, Acting Executive Vice Provost for Academic Affairs (rsantos@illinois.edu), for inquiries about the Strategic Hiring Initiative.
Sincerely,
William Bernhard
Interim Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs and Provost
