“Jeff brings a wealth of experience and creativity to this position,” said Interim Provost Margaret Fitzgerald. “His appointment is effective immediately although he will transition his duties in the College of Science and Mathematics.”

In 2017, Boyer was recognized with a Commendatory Faculty Award from the North Dakota University System. The award acknowledges faculty who have demonstrated innovative use of technology in the delivery of classroom instruction.
The position’s major duties include developing and overseeing the university’s assessment program and providing oversight and coordination for NDSU’s compliance with the Criteria for Accreditation and the Assumed Practices as established by the Higher Learning Commission.
