Senior Vice President for University Advancement, William & Mary | CEO, W&M Foundation | Co-Founder & Managing Director, Extra Credit Ventures
As one of the nation's top research universities (now designated an R1, the top category), William & Mary faculty both create new knowledge (research) and then share that knowledge with our students (teach). It sounds simple, but we've been at this since 1693, and doing it well requires exceptional faculty committed both to their students and to expanding our knowledge of the world.
Reflecting William & Mary’s dedication to advancing knowledge through cutting-edge research, the university has been designated an “R1” research institution by the Carnegie Classification system. ? Announced today by the American Council on Education (ACE) and the Carnegie Foundation, this classification represents the highest level available to doctorate-granting universities. The R1 status enhances William & Mary’s reputation for research and scholarship, opening doors to expanded publication and grant opportunities.
