Over the past several months, the Search Committee for the Vice-President Academic and Research (President Alaa Abd-El-Aziz, Dr. Cathy Ryan, Dr. Kathy Gottschall-Pass, Mr. Scott Harper, Ms. Margo Thompson, Ms. Tara Judson, Mr. John Rix) has received and considered expressions of interest and supporting documents from potential candidates for the position. Four outstanding candidates proceeded to the interview process. As a result, one candidate was selected by the committee to deliver a 30-minute public presentation to campus. Dr. Robert Gilmour, Jr. presented on Tuesday, March 21, 2017 to the campus community.

The search committee values feedback and would appreciate receiving written comments following the presentation by email at VPARsearch@upei.ca by 5:00 pm, Monday, March 27, 2017.

For those who were unable to attend in person, a video of Dr. Gilmour's presentation can be viewed online.
