Molzahn reappointed as Dean of Nursing

There is a story online with more on Dr. Molzahn's reappointment.

I am pleased to announce the reappointment of Dr. Anita Molzahn as Dean of the Faculty of Nursing. A duly constituted Dean Review Committee concluded its deliberations, and the Board of Governors has approved the committee’s recommendation that Dr. Molzahn be reappointed for a second five-year term of office, to begin July 1, 2014, following an earned administrative leave from July 1, 2013 to June 30, 2014.

Since her appointment in 2008, Dean Molzahn has demonstrated exemplary leadership and operational oversight of one of the largest nursing faculties in North America. In that time, Dean Molzahn, in addition to other key activities, has overseen completion of a successful Canadian Association of Schools of Nursing accreditation process, development and implementation of a Faculty strategic plan, and a major budget restructuring process. Under Dean Molzahn’s leadership in teaching, research and practice, the Faculty of Nursing’s mission of "contributing to the attainment of health equity in the global community, to the development of nursing and health care services, and to the promotion of optimal health for all" is particularly well-served.

The University of Alberta is fortunate to have a Dean of such high calibre. We wish Dean Molzahn continued success in her second term.

I wish to thank members of the Dean Review Committee for their enthusiasm, commitment and hard work, and to thank all who participated in the review process.

Sincerely,

Carl G. Amrhein
Provost and Vice-President (Academic)
