Dear ²ÝÝ®ÎÛÊÓƵµ¼º½ Community,
I am pleased to announce the appointment of Professor Sarfaroz Niyozov as Acting Associate Dean, Programs for a one-year term beginning July 1, 2021.
Sarfaroz is an Associate Professor in the Department of Curriculum, Teaching and Learning who has written, taught and supervised extensively in the areas of teaching, teacher development and education reform in developing, muslim, post-communist contexts; global education; and international and comparative curriculum studies/education. He has served in numerous administrative roles in CTL and ²ÝÝ®ÎÛÊÓƵµ¼º½, including service as editor of the Journal of Curriculum Inquiry, Co-Chair of the Curriculum & Pedagogy program, and Co-Director of the Center for Comparative, International and Development Education. During a leave from ²ÝÝ®ÎÛÊÓƵµ¼º½ from 2015 to 2018, Sarfaroz served as Dean of the Institute for Educational Development at the Aga Khan University in Pakistan.
Sarfaroz has a distinguished record of leadership within and beyond ²ÝÝ®ÎÛÊÓƵµ¼º½, and I know that he will continue to make important contributions to our community as he works alongside Interim Dean Normand Labrie in ²ÝÝ®ÎÛÊÓƵµ¼º½â€™s senior academic leadership team.
