Leading Syracuse Through Our Next Period of Excellence and Impact
Chancellor Kent Syverud announced on August 26, 2025 that he will step down from his role in June 2026. As the university embarks on a thoughtful, transparent and expansive search to identify our 13th chancellor and president, we encourage the participation of the broad Syracuse community.
This website serves as the central hub for information and updates about the search process, including milestones and timelines, as well as ways to share your ideas and feedback. Together, we will select the leader who will guide Syracuse University into our next chapter of excellence and impact.
