Provost's Office
On behalf of my colleagues in the university’s eight academic areas (Colleges of Arts
and Sciences, Business, Education, Health Sciences; Honors College; School of Pharmacy,
First Year Experience, and Nontraditional Programs), thank you for visiting the Provost’s
website. Here you will find valuable information about the work of the Offices of
Academic Affairs and Contract Administration, as well as Graduate and Professional
Studies and Sponsored Programs.
The mission of our division continues to uphold the provision of quality academic
programs that further student learning. We hold CSU students to high expectations
that result in gainful employment in fields related to their programs of study and
in their pursuit of related higher-level graduate work.
With excellent faculty and support staff, as well as committed academic deans and
departmental chairpersons, I’m confident you’ll find the guidance, assistance, and
call to collaborative excellence that marks my vision as Provost. Please know that
your concerns matter to us all, beginning with me. Your success as a student, CSU
colleague, and member of the community is also our success.
Together we make true the phrase, we are "CSU in motion" and the idea that together
at CSU we all become greater.
Sincerely,
Leslie K. Roundtree
Interim Provost and Vice President, Academic Affairs
