Reporting to the provost, academic deans set the direction for the schools and college they lead, working with the MIT community on a wide range of issues.

03.Institute professors#Section link copied to clipboard

Institute Professor is the highest honor awarded by the Institute’s administration and faculty to tenured faculty. Institute Professors report to the provost and have demonstrated exceptional distinction by a combination of leadership, accomplishment, and service in the scholarly, educational, and general intellectual life of the Institute or wider academic community.

04.Administration + finance#Section link copied to clipboard

Two senior leaders in administration and finance have a secondary reporting relationship to the provost. Though they primarily report to MIT’s executive vice president and treasurer, the vice presidents for human resources and finance work with the provost to support faculty and steward MIT finances.
