Resources for the Education Deans at Columbia University

In December 2014, the Office of the Vice Provost for Academic Programs (OVPAP) convened the first meeting of the Education Deans across Columbia University.

The purpose of these meetings is to enhance our work by offering an opportunity for the education deans across the 16 schools to meet regularly; to discuss a variety of topics including areas of overlap in our roles, new collaborative initiatives, educational policies and programs, and the challenges we face in general. 

The group meets approximately 2-3 times per semester during the fall and spring.
