  • Faculty 2016-17 Dear Colleagues, This Fall Semester, We Welcome a Talented New Group of Faculty to the College and Graduate School of Arts & Sciences
    New Faculty 2016-17 Dear Colleagues, This fall semester, we welcome a talented new group of faculty to the College and Graduate School of Arts & Sciences. This is an exciting time in Arts & Sciences, as we continue to reap the rewards from the efforts of faculty search committees, department chairs, program directors, associate deans, and other faculty who collaborate on recruiting and retaining the best and brightest scholars, researchers and educators. We are in the midst of a generational turnover of distinguished faculty, and the faculty joining us this academic year represent an ambitious campaign that has brought more than 175 new faculty members to the College in the last three years. By the end of this decade, nearly half of the Arts & Sciences faculty are projected to have begun their UVA appointments within the last 10 years. We aim to continue recruiting at the highest level of excellence as we seek a diverse faculty supporting a spectrum of emerging cross-disciplinary initiatives. The University of Virginia’s longstanding reputation for excellence in undergraduate education and graduate study is based on exceptional teaching and research, and this time of transition within the College only serves to strengthen this world-class institution. Arts & Sciences welcomes 67 new faculty members this year, and the biographies included in this booklet provide a snapshot of the varied gifts and talents each of them brings to the College. They all represent a key step forward in the College’s efforts to expand our vibrant and flourishing community. On behalf of the College and Graduate School of Arts & Sciences, I celebrate the arrival of our new colleagues and look forward to the collective and singular impacts they will have, on the University of Virginia and beyond.
