A Message from the Vice President

“It is my honor to serve as the Vice President for Research & Economic Development at The University of Alabama.  I believe strongly in the critical role of the flagship university in Alabama and in executing its missions to advance the intellectual and social condition of the people of the state through quality programs of teaching, research and service.

The University of Alabama is uniquely positioned to become one of the premier comprehensive research institutions in the southeastern United States over the next five years and, in so doing, translate research productivity and innovation to economic and societal development.

Truly exciting things are happening at the Capstone! 

Roll Tide!”
