The Office of the Academic Dean, located on the second floor of Green Hall in room 215, is responsible for all issues related to academic programs, courses, classes, class scheduling, academic departments, faculty assignment and evaluations, student advising, First Year/Semester Experience, grading, academic standings, graduation requirements and graduation standards. The Academic Dean is responsible for overseeing the delivery of all courses offered for credit by Vermont Technical College, whether they are offered on or off-campus.
Each academic program or major is assigned to a specific department under the Academic Dean, and, depending on the number of students in the program, a department will have a department chair or program director and additional faculty required to conduct and deliver the program courses.
Students who have concerns about faculty, class scheduling, advising, grading or related to other areas that may be affecting their academic performance, should first meet with their academic advisor to try to arrive at a resolution. If the advisor cannot help, students should meet with their department chair or director. And, if after meeting with the advisor and the department chair or director still cannot resolve the issues, the student should set up an appointment with the Office of the Academic Dean. Depending on the nature of the problem involved, students will meet with either the Academic Dean or the Associate Academic Dean to discuss possible solutions and outcomes.
