About Francine Conway

Francine Conway

Francine Conway, an internationally recognized child psychologist, was appointed the first chancellor-provost of Rutgers University–New Brunswick on July 1, 2021, which combines elements of the chancellor's portfolio with those of the provost's to establish a clear focus on academic excellence for students and faculty. She also serves as a Distinguished Professor.

Dr. Conway had served as provost and executive vice chancellor for academic affairs since November 2020. As provost, she embraced a commitment to building a diverse and inclusive environment for faculty, staff, and students, including recruitment of faculty from underrepresented demographics and ensuring pathways to success for talented students from diverse and at-risk backgrounds.

As dean of the Graduate School of Applied and Professional Psychology, Conway has emphasized creating an academic home where all members know they belong so they can achieve their goals.

Rutgers–New Brunswick is poised to deliver on its promise to serve the public; to be a welcoming and intellectually stimulating place for individuals from diverse backgrounds; and to transform the lives of individuals, communities and the world
