Position Summary

The vice president for academics and dean of faculty is the number two administrative officer of the college, reporting directly to the president.  As the senior administrator of the entire educational program of the college, the vice president for academics is also dean of faculty, with primary responsibility for the academic program, and, along with leadership from the vice president for student life, for the co-curricular life of the student body as well.  One of the key priorities for Westmont College is to continue and enhance the close working relationship we enjoy between the curricular and co-curricular programs of the college.

As such, the vice president for academics must embody and articulate the character of the college as stated in our mission statement and lived out within our community.  This individual must possess an authentic and vital personal Christian faith and an excitement about the quest for truth pursued through a classic liberal arts curriculum.
