Dear members of the 成人VR视频 community,

It is my pleasure to announce the appointment of Professor Victoria Talwar as Interim Dean of the Faculty of Education. Professor Talwar's term of office will begin on August 12, 2023 and will continue until the appointment of a new Dean of the Faculty of Education.

Prof. Talwar joined 成人VR视频鈥檚 Faculty of Education in 2004 and is currently a Full Professor in the Department of Educational and Counselling Psychology, where she has served as Department Chair since 2020. She is also an Associate Member of both the Institute for Human Development and Well-Being (IHDW) and the Department of Psychology.

Prof. Talwar is a James 成人VR视频 Professor and held the Tier II Canada Research Chair in Forensic Developmental Psychology from 2012-2022. She is an accomplished scholar widely recognized for her work in developmental psychology and law. Prof. Talwar鈥檚 innovative interdisciplinary research on children鈥檚 verbal deception, moral development and child witness competency issues has informed current debates about children鈥檚 social-cognitive development and has contributed to legal reform in Canada. Her teaching and supervision have been recognized through several awards including the Northeastern Association of Graduate Schools Teaching (Doctoral level) Award and 成人VR视频鈥檚 David Thomson Award for Graduate Supervision and Teaching. Prof. Talwar holds a PhD in Developmental Psychology from Queen's University, and a Master鈥檚 degree in Psychology from the University of St. Andrews.

I would like to thank Prof. Talwar for agreeing to take on these responsibilities in an interim capacity. I also want to take this occasion to extend my sincere gratitude to Professor Dilson Rassier for his outstanding service to our University as Dean of the Faculty of Education for the past nine years and congratulate him for his appointment as Provost and Vice-President Academic at Simon Fraser University.

In accordance with University Statutes, I have advised the Secretary-General of the need to establish an Advisory Committee for the selection of a new Dean of the Faculty of Education. Information regarding the position, and the nomination and application processes, will be forthcoming.

Sincerely,

Christopher Manfredi

Provost and Vice-Principal (Academic)
