About the Office

Fostering an Atmosphere of Excellence, Understanding and Collaboration

As the University's chief academic officer, the provost works to ensure our academic offerings are at the highest level.

Our Provost, Mary Clark, an experienced law teacher, researcher, and administrator, comes to DU after serving for more than 18 years on the faculty, and more recently, in the Provost’s Office at American University. Provost Clark is a strategic and innovative leader who works in alignment with Chancellor Jeremy Haefner to realize the goals of DU’s Strategic Imperatives.

The Office of the Provost works to ensure that every member of our community, from incoming students to tenured professors, have the support and resources they need to excel. We strive to create an environment where all community members are valued and thriving.
