The University of Pittsburgh is one of the country’s best public research universities; our strength is based on the exceptional quality of faculty throughout the University and is demonstrated in the outstanding levels of student achievement, research success, and multidisciplinary teamwork. Each academic unit of the University is committed to fostering a climate in which faculty can be successful in teaching, research, and service. Centralized support for faculty is available through initiatives based in the provost’s office and elsewhere.
As a whole, the Faculty Affairs, Diversity, and Development team has responsibility for faculty-related initiatives, goals, programs, and processes, as well as supporting the recruitment, retention, and success of an excellent and diverse faculty.
The Office of Faculty Affairs is led by Vice Provost Lu-in Wang, and the Office of Faculty Diversity and Development is led by Vice Provost John Wallace.
