Wittenberg University invites nominations and applications for its 16th President. Wittenberg seeks an inspiring and strategic leader who will bring fresh vision to this distinctive institution. The next President will have the opportunity to foster a shared strategic vision for the future of Wittenberg, expand the University’s resource base and enhance fundraising efforts, strengthen enrollment management initiatives and marketing, be a visible and engaged community member, and build and sustain a robust curriculum that showcases academic excellence. The next President will be the chief advocate for Wittenberg and an accomplished relationship builder internally and externally who will support Wittenberg’s growth and enhance its visibility locally, regionally, and nationally. A Wittenberg education consists of three parts: a broad base in the liberal arts, an intensive course of study in a major, and an enhanced course of study that makes up a minor or electives. Wittenberg also places considerable emphasis on strong speaking, writing, critical thinking, and research skills to ensure that its students are competitive grad school applicants, outstanding future employees, and global leaders. At the same time, a Wittenberg education provides an in-depth investigation of human behavior and diversity. Wittenberg undergraduates enjoy more than 30 major opportunities and 40 minor options that span the humanities, social sciences, health, business, and STEM disciplines with a 12:1 student to faculty ratio. Wittenberg University finds itself at a moment of inflection, primed for a visionary and courageous leader to join the community and navigate uncertain times toward a promising future. Among the key priorities for the next President are to define a strategic vision and articulate a clear identity for Wittenberg that aligns enrollments, staffing, and the curriculum; lead the campus through a process of strategic planning and execution; bolster revenues and maintain a balanced budget; forge a culture of trust through frequent and transparent communications as a visible and accessible member of the Wittenberg community; develop and deepen external partnerships; and build a dynamic senior leadership team. Application materials will be considered in full confidence and should be submitted before February 24, 2025 via the Talent Profile.
