Dear NJIT Faculty:

The Provost Search Committee invites all faculty and staff to submit nominations for the provost position. We also welcome your  input on the search process. We feel that it is important for everyone to have a stake in the search. We wish to know from the NJIT community what qualities they desire in their next provost. Our aim is to generate the broadest and strongest possible candidate pool from both inside and outside of the university. The committee will then contact all nominees, in confidence, to discuss their willingness to have their names put forward.

Please submit the names of qualified individuals to any of the committee members listed below:

• Cheickna Sylla, Associate Professor (Search Committee Chair), School of Management (sylla@njit.edu)
