Internationally renowned scholar Daniel Diermeier named Vanderbilt University chancellor

Daniel Diermeier, an internationally renowned political scientist and management scholar, has been elected Vanderbilt University’s ninth chancellor, Board of Trust Chairman Bruce R. Evans announced Wednesday. He will begin his term as chancellor on July 1, 2020. A member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and a Guggenheim fellow, Diermeier currently is the provost at the University of Chicago, where he previously served as dean of the Harris School of Public Policy. “Daniel has the vision, leadership experience and deep commitment to trans-institutional research and teaching that we were seeking in our ninth chancellor. I am thrilled with this decision,” Evans said. “He embodies Vanderbilt’s values and has a keen understanding of what makes Vanderbilt special—academic excellence made possible by a highly collaborative community. “Daniel also shares Vanderbilt’s commitment to making an elite education accessible to all qualified students, regardless of their background or ability to pay, a commitment informed by his own experiences as a first-generation college student,” Evans continued. “His intellectual and strategic acumen, as well as his enthusiasm for our mission, will make him an outstanding chancellor.” Diermeier noted that Vanderbilt’s strong and constant commitment to its mission of research excellence and to educating the whole person at the undergraduate and graduate levels drew him to the opportunity to join the university as chancellor. “Vanderbilt is among the world’s most prestigious universities, bringing together extraordinary faculty and staff with exceptional students to teach, discover and improve the lives of people everywhere. What truly separates Vanderbilt from its peers is the willingness of its various parts to work together, as one, to magnify impact toward a shared mission. I have long admired the collegial, interdisciplinary spirit that distinguishes Vanderbilt University. It’s exactly this kind of spirit that fosters innovation, groundbreaking research and a transformative education,” Diermeier said.
