Chancellor of Albizu Miami

Albizu University, Miami, has a new Interim Chancellor, Sharrie R. Dean, PhD. She works around the clock, to oversee with a great team, all things related to the day to day operations of the campus, while also having a vision for our future. With strategic and reflective practices, the inclination of the Interim Chancellor is to fulfil Albizu University’s mission of educating professionals in behavioral sciences, speech pathology and other disciplines, committed to research, to improve the quality of life, and to serve diverse communities.

Ensuring that the goals and objectives of the Strategic Plan are implemented by all, it is the Interim Chancellor’s desire to lead by quintessential examples. This leadership includes promoting the vision of the University in ensuring the ever-evolving needs of the campus are always paramount; that all stakeholders of the AU community, faculty, staff, administrators, students and others, conjoin with the agenda to elevate, while addressing our namesake’s Dr. Carlos Miranda Albizu’s mantra “Love reaches beyond knowledge.” From her heart, Dean coined the phrase that at Albizu:  students are more than a number. 

Working in direct alignment of the President’s Office, the Interim Chancellor’s office is always open to the campus community of faculty, staff, students and community-at-large, and invites them in the process of sustaining our relevance and deliverables. This is a perpetual task for us, and conveys the larger significance of our work, in the global world.
