Creating a learner-centered environment at the University of Central Missouri starts with our leadership. From our president to our Strategic Leadership Team to our Board of Governors, our leaders are driven to create an atmosphere where student success is a top priority. They are committed to academic quality, teaching excellence and engaged learning. Their dedication to empowering students’ dreams—all the way to graduation day and beyond—is reflected throughout UCM.
At UCM there’s no Ivory Tower. Our leaders are known on campus and in the community. They’re visible, accessible and approachable. Just like the future leaders we’re building at UCM, our university leadership understands the value of civic engagement and of giving of oneself to build stronger communities.
