Administration
New Jersey City University benefits from strong, courageous leadership at all levels—from the Board of Trustees who steward the university's mission; to the Office of the President and other senior leaders whose strategic direction and passion for higher education steers the university and its students toward a bright future; to NJCU's University Senate, which allows a wide variety of University constituents to participate in the process of governance and champion academic freedom. Together, the following groups ensure that NJCU continues to strive for excellence in its business practices and operations, and sets the stage for continued success.
The Board of Trustees, following the guidelines and policies set forth by the New Jersey Commission on Higher Education, oversees NJCU's affairs and is ultimately responsible for the University fulfilling its mission.
The Office of the President sets NJCU's agenda and drives the University forward in its mission. The President oversees academic affairs, administration, enrollment, and other key areas within the University—including the Office of the Provost, which ensures a high-level of academic excellence that defines NJCU's reputation.
Made up of members representing faculty, professional staff, students, and alumni, the University Senate offers NJCU's academic community the opportunity to participate in the decision-making process and governance of the university.
