University of Connecticut Provost Carl Lejuez, the school’s chief academic officer, will be departing in June to become the executive vice president and provost at Stony Brook University in New York.
Lejuez has served as UConn’s chief academic officer since 2020. He has served as provost and executive vice president for academic affairs.
The announcement comes at a time when the university is actively looking for a new president. Radenka Maric was named interim president in January. She replaced Andrew Agwunobi, who was also interim president. Agwunobi replaced Thomas Katsouleas, who stepped down abruptly as UConn president after only a few years on the job.Â
