Leadership and Administration
UC Riverside’s administrative organizational structure features a Provost and Executive Vice Chancellor and six Vice Chancellors whose offices oversee specific areas and who report directly to the Chancellor.
UCR's Chancellor Kim A. Wilcox was appointed UC Riverside’s ninth chancellor in August 2013 and is responsible for developing and executing UCR’s strategic vision and goals by his team, in concert with the UC Office of the President, Provost and Executive Vice Chancellor, campus leadership, as well as key external stakeholders.
The Interim Provost and Executive Vice Chancellor, Thomas M. Smith, is responsible for managing the daily campus operations, developing academic and administrative policies. The office works closely with the Chancellor, the chair of the Academic Senate, and the deans of UCR's colleges, schools, and divisions to formulate and realize campus goals.
