Office of the Provost & Vice President for Academic Affairs


Students who enroll at SUNY Plattsburgh make a quality-of-life decision. They have placed themselves at a college that believes strongly in their potential to succeed and makes their success its top priority.

At SUNY Plattsburgh, students are welcomed into a teaching-learning community committed to student success and dedicated to inclusivity, diversity and freedom of thought and expression. The amazing beauty of our region not only provides a wonderful setting for our work, it inspires and furthers our commitment to environmental sustainability and stewardship. We are dedicated to fostering the habits of mind, the critical thinking skills and the disciplinary expertise graduates will need as they go out into the world and help shape the future.           

Academic affairs is the administrative division of the university that delivers its curriculum. Our excellent faculty members employ innovative pedagogies and methods to support student success both inside and outside the classroom, and opportunities abound for students to work alongside professors as they conduct research and engage in creative activity and performance. Not only do students receive support and guidance from their academic departments and programs, our top-notch Learning Center, Office of Academic Advising, library and our technology services area stand ready to assist.
