There is a restructure of La Trobe U academic leadership

Vice Chancellor  John Dewar tells staff there is a “refresh” of the learning and teaching management structure and a review of leadership positions in the DVC A portfolio.

As part of the changes, the PVC learning quality and innovation role is abolished. Incumbent Paula Baron is on leave prior to leaving LT U.

There is a new Associate PVC International role in the College of Science, Health and Engineering. Sonia Reisenhofer moves to it from (acting) Associate PVC Academic Partnerships.

Jessica Vanderlelie becomes acting DVC A – Kerri Lee Krause is off to Uni Melbourne in December. It’s another step up for the energetic Professor Vanderlelie. She moved from Grifffith U in 2016 to become the Innovative Research Universities VCs’ Fellow, working on alumni engagement and student outcomes. She was appointed LT U’s PVC student success in November ’17.
