Floyd L. Wormley Jr., Provost and Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs

As the university’s chief academic officer, the Provost provides vision and leadership to support excellence in teaching, learning and research, from the undergraduate level through graduate and doctoral levels. The Provost’s primary focus is to implement TCU’s mission: to educate individuals to think and act as ethical leaders and responsible citizens in the global community. The Provost does this through leadership and partnership with vice provosts, associate provosts, deans, Academic Affairs staff, all faculty, Faculty Senate and student governance. The Provost convenes and chairs meetings of the Provost’s Council and University Council, and acts for the Chancellor and President in their absence.

Guided by TCU’s core values,  the strategic plan, LEAD ON: Values in Action™, is built upon four foundational pillars: 1. Student-Centered Growth. 2. Research, Scholarship and Creative Activities. 3. Athletics. 4. Community Engagement. Provost Wormley leads Academic Affairs to focus on pillar No. 2 through programs and initiatives focused on student success and academic experience, faculty distinction and scholarship, academic excellence and program eminence, and career and professional development.
