Faculty

Members of the graduate faculty at UNC Charlotte have distinguished themselves both as teachers and as leaders – in the lecture hall and through their research. Graduate faculty are appointed by departmental leadership and usually serve a three-year term. For more information contact Annette Parks in the Graduate School.

Graduate Program Directors (GPDs) are selected by their academic department or program from among tenured or tenure-track graduate faculty and are responsible for the administration of the graduate program(s) in their department. GPDs serve as the primary point of contact with the Graduate School.  News, information and advising tools for GPDs can be found at GPDNet.  

Alert the Graduate School to a change in Graduate Program Director (GPD) or affiliate program member, by submitting a change form.
