BOONE, N.C. — Appalachian State University’s Division of Academic Affairs recently announced Dr. Jacqueline “Jacqui” Z. Bergman, professor in Appalachian’s Department of Management, has accepted a permanent appointment as vice provost for faculty affairs. Her new position will become effective July 1.

Bergman has served as interim vice provost for faculty affairs since July 2018, leading policy development, implementation and assessment, particularly in relation to faculty matters.

“I’m honored to be able to continue serving the faculty and the institution in this role.”

“It’s been a genuine pleasure working with everyone in Academic Affairs and across the university this past year,” Bergman said. “I’m honored to be able to continue serving the faculty and the institution in this role.”

Of Bergman’s service to university faculty, Dr. Darrell Kruger, provost and executive vice chancellor, said, “Dr. Bergman has overseen faculty development programs that enhance teaching, research, creative and service activities, as well as help faculty to sustain rewarding personal lives while advancing their careers.”

Bergman has provided oversight and support for revision and interpretation of Appalachian’s Faculty Handbook; worked with the provost, faculty, departmental chairs and deans; provided clear understanding of promotion, tenure and reappointment and other faculty personnel policies; and served as Academic Affairs’ liaison on all personnel matters, working closely with the Office of Equity, Diversity and Compliance, and the Office of the General Counsel.

Additionally, she has worked closely with the university’s Faculty Senate and represented the provost on the Faculty Governance Committee.

In her new appointment, she will continue to oversee Appalachian’s Center for Academic Excellence and serve as liaison to the University of North Carolina System Office regarding academic affairs issues. She will also act as a representative for the provost and Division of Academic Affairs on various university committees.

About Dr. Jacqui Bergman

Bergman came to Appalachian as a visiting assistant professor in 2005 and was tenured and promoted to associate professor in 2012. She was promoted to full professor in July 2018.

She is one of 10 faculty members in the university’s Industrial-Organizational Psychology and Human Resource Management (IOHRM) program — an interdisciplinary Master of Arts offered by the departments of Psychology and Management that prepares graduates for work in business, industry and government.

Her research interests include group dynamics and team processes, leadership, social perception, and personality with an emphasis on narcissism.

Prior to joining the faculty at Appalachian, Bergman received her Ph.D. in industrial-organizational psychology from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. She also holds an M.S. in industrial-organizational psychology from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, and a B.A. in liberal arts from Dickinson College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania.
