UNE’s Appointment of a New Chancellor
The University of New England is seeking a new Chancellor to lead the University into a new era of innovation and opportunity, and to be the public face and champion of UNE.
Following the decision of Chancellor of the University of New England (UNE), Mr James Harris, to step down at the expiry of his current term towards the end this year, the Council of UNE has formally commenced a Chancellor Selection Process.
The appointment of a new Chancellor is a key priority for the Council, and it is committed to a best practice process and governance. The Council also recognises that the University is entering a new era and is highly attuned to future necessities and opportunities.
