Vice Chancellor for Inclusive Excellence and Belonging

Founded in 1964, the University of Massachusetts Boston (UMass Boston) is a recognized model of excellence for urban public universities. The scenic waterfront campus, with easy access to downtown Boston, is located next to the John F. Kennedy Library and Presidential Museum, the Commonwealth Museum and Massachusetts State Archives, and the Edward M. Kennedy Institute for the United States Senate.

The most diverse college campus in New England and a majority-minority campus, UMass Boston, one of the five campuses of the UMass system, boasts that it is a research university with a teaching soul. It combines the rigorous focus on the generation of knowledge that characterizes a major research university with a dedication to teaching that places its top scholars and researchers in undergraduate and graduate classrooms, where a 15:1 student-to-faculty ratio and a focus on high-impact pedagogies fosters easy interaction of students with their professors. Eighty percent of full-time faculty hold the highest degree in their fields. With a growing reputation for innovative research addressing complex urban issues, UMass Boston – metropolitan Boston’s only public research university – offers its diverse student population both an intimate learning environment and the rich experience of a great American city.

This is a time of unprecedented growth and transformational change for the university. The first residence halls opened in Fall 2018; and several construction projects have added two new academic buildings to the campus’s physical plant. This dynamic environment will continue in the coming years as the university defines its plans for developing the 20+acre Bayside property to enhance the academic enterprise further and support the community of which the university is a part.
