About Tara Sirvent
As a Visionary Leader, I have stewarded both internal and external resources to prioritize excellence in program design across multiple delivery modalities at the undergraduate and, most recently, at the graduate level, while emphasizing student success as the indicator of academic excellence. I maintain a strong commitment to a liberal arts education while emphasizing the value of learning within a technologically advanced US economy context. I have the requisite skills necessary to responsibly manage an academic college unit while strategically planning for future innovation, and creatively lead the faculty to holistically contribute to thought leadership and the overall mission of the University. I primarily lead by inspiring collaboration within a visionary framework with a diverse group of both faculty and staff working together toward a common goal. I believe that I have the ability to inspire creativity and drive innovation that allows for an institution to meet emerging needs in a dynamic fashion
