Advocacy and support for the University’s academic enterprise and the intellectual life of its community define the mission of the Office of the Provost. The Provost provides leadership for academic programs and initiatives involving faculty and students, and works with the entire campus community to ensure that faculty and student needs are met and the University’s mission fulfilled.

The goals of the Provost’s Office at the University of Rochester reflect its motto — Meliora — the Latin exhortation to become ever better.
