The president of the University of Washington is Mark A. Emmert, a Washington state native who returned to his alma mater in 2004 with a goal of expanding the institution's stellar national and international standing.

Emmert believes the role of the administration is to shape the university in such a way that it supports the work of the faculty and staff. The president leads in the shaping of a common vision, providing leadership in communicating that vision and rallying support for it, both internally and externally.

Before returning to the UW, Emmert served as chancellor of Louisiana State University and held faculty and administrative positions at the University of Connecticut, Montana State University and the University of Colorado.
