The Chellgren Center is a unit within the Provost Office with leadership invested in an Endowed Chair, Endowed Professorships, and Chellgren Faculty Fellows.
The Chellgren Center endowment supports the chair and the professorships for an explicit appointment period. Thereafter faculty who have held these positions, as well as other important faculty leaders in undergraduate education, remain actively engaged as leaders within the Center as Chellgren Faculty Fellows.
Commensurate with their status as senior level faculty, The Chellgren Chair and each Chellgren Endowed Professor maintains an active research program in their respective disciplines and directs a specific project intended to advance progressive reform of undergraduate education at the University of Kentucky.
