Office of the Provost

As a student-centered research university, AU is committed to advancing knowledge and preparing the next generation of leaders to effect positive change in our community and throughout the world. Our challenging academic programs, expert faculty and staff, and vibrant campus in the nation’s capital provide students with enriching educational experiences at the undergraduate and graduate levels. As you navigate our website, you’ll have the opportunity to learn about our schools and colleges, our nationally and internationally recognized centers and institutes, and the many resources available to AU students on campus and beyond. Whether you are a student, faculty or staff member, alum, parent, friend, or neighbor, I hope that you will become actively engaged with American University. I welcome your feedback and encourage you to contact me at provost@american.edu if I can support you in any way.
