New Dean of Arts and Foundational Programs Dr. Judith Anderson

91制片厂 is welcoming an award-winning Arts educator and researcher to its academic leadership team.

Dr. Judith Anderson will be joining 91制片厂 as Dean, Arts and Foundation Programs, which offers a wide array of arts university studies programming, including a new applied Arts degree, along with multiple levels of Adult Upgrading, English Language and Adult Special Education for students at all four campuses.

鈥淛udith brings a breadth of experience to 91制片厂. She taught extensively while offering insight into humanities and social sciences through research, and she has a deep understanding of how work-integrated learning can be utilized within the post-secondary environment. We are confident she will quickly become a valued leader to 91制片厂 students, faculty, instructors, and the organization as a whole,鈥 says Dr. Andrew Hay, 91制片厂 Provost and Vice President Academic.

Anderson holds a PhD from the University of Alberta, following undergraduate and graduate studies at the universities of Oxford, Winnipeg and Manitoba.

Anderson served as an Associate Dean at NorQuest College in the former Faculty of Health and Community Studies, where she oversaw 14 academic programs as well as the faculty鈥檚 work-integrated learning department. She previously led NorQuest鈥檚 Office of Student Judicial Affairs, which assists students, staff and faculty to resolve and prevent issues related to student rights and responsibilities.

Besides being a qualified mediator, Anderson has 10 years of experience teaching university level English at NorQuest College and the University of Alberta. She has published and presented research on medieval and early modern English literature, Canadian pride parades, as well as academic integrity.

Before she began working in post-secondary, Anderson worked in various roles at the Manitoba Theatre Centre as a dramaturge, assistant director and Fringe Festival site manager.

Anderson officially joins 91制片厂 on Aug. 22. She replaces former Arts and Foundational Programs Dean Dr. Robert Huxtable, who retired from 91制片厂 in June after 41 years of service with the institution.
