The appointment of Dr. Michael Khan is effective July 1, 2025. Dr. Khan will join Saint Mary’s from Trent University, where he currently serves as Provost and Vice-President Academic.
Saint Mary's University has embarked on the search for its next President and Vice-Chancellor, following Dr. Robert Summerby-Murray’s recent announcement that he will not pursue a third term. After leading the university through an exciting decade of change Dr. Summerby-Murray will conclude his term on June 30, 2025.
The search for our next President and Vice-Chancellor is an exciting opportunity for the Saint Mary’s University community to come together to identify a visionary leader who embodies the university's values and can drive its mission forward.
The Board of Governors has appointed a Presidential Search Committee to assist with this important responsibility. The Committee will provide opportunities for faculty, students, staff, alumni, and other community members to help develop the ideal candidate profile to attract the best possible candidates.
