Welcome!
The Office of Provost ensures that the University of Southern Maine (USM) provides students with a world-class education, preparing them with the knowledge, skills, and experiences necessary to thrive in an ever-changing global landscape. We are committed to enhancing the quality of our academic programs, expanding research/creativity/scholarship opportunities, and fostering a vibrant campus community where every student feels valued and empowered.
To achieve these objectives, we collaborate with our esteemed faculty, dedicated staff, and committed student leaders. Student voices and perspectives matter greatly, and we encourage our students to actively engage in the university’s initiatives, participate in student organizations, and take advantage of the numerous resources and support services available. Together, we can shape the future of our university and create a nurturing environment where we all can excel academically and personally.
Through our multiple learning formats, our educational experience is accessible and robust. We purposefully cultivate a community with varied ages, backgrounds, and experiences to build an academic environment rich with a diversity of perspectives and ideas. This results in more well-rounded learning as individuals engage one another, build understanding, and learn to advocate for themselves and each other.
