Call for Nominations: Chancellor, University of Manitoba
Nominations are open from November 4, 2024 to 4:00 p.m. on November 26, 2024 for the Office of Chancellor of the University of Manitoba for a term beginning June 1, 2025.
The Chancellor of the University of Manitoba services as the titular head of the University. A volunteer role, the Chancellor confers all degrees and is a voting member of the Board of Governors and Senate. The Chancellor serves as an ambassador, advisor, leader and essential contributor to the governance and advancement of the institution.
Chancellor Anne Mahon has served with great distinction for two terms as Chancellor since June 1, 2019. Chancellor Mahon has indicated that she will not be standing for a further term as Chancellor when her current term ends on May 31, 2025. Accordingly, a new Chancellor will need to be identified and elected. To that end, the Chancellor Search Committee has been formed and will meet throughout the fall/early winter to undertake the process.
The Chancellor Search Committee welcomes nominations for the Office of the Chancellor from members and assessors of the Board of Governors and the Senate, Students, Academic Staff, Support Staff and Alumni of the University of Manitoba. Nomination forms can be found on the Committee of Election website.
