Why OSU?
Founded in 1868, Oregon State University is the state's largest public research university and one of only three land, sea, space, and sun grant institutions in the United States. With campuses in Corvallis and Bend, a robust online presence through Ecampus, and Extension services in every Oregon county, OSU serves more than 35,000 students from across the globe. The university is recognized for its world-class research, teaching, and outreach, and is committed to advancing equity, sustainability and economic prosperity throughout Oregon and beyond.
OSU's strategic plan, Prosperity Widely Shared, reflects its commitment to inclusive excellence, student success, faculty distinction and research growth. The university is a top-tier R1 institution, with more than $400 million in annual research expenditures and a strong reputation in fields such as forestry, marine sciences, engineering, public health and agricultural sciences.
The university is entering a transformative period marked by two major institutional initiatives:
The Huang Collaborative Innovation Complex (HCIC): Opening in 2026, the state-of-the-art interdisciplinary research center will house one of the nation's most advanced supercomputers and service as a hub for innovation in AI, robotics, clean energy, materials science and semiconductor research.
The Administrative Modernization Program (AMP): A comprehensive multi-year transformation of HR, finance, procurement and grants administration that includes OSU's implementation of Workday in July 2026. AMP will modernize workforce systems, streamline administrative processes, elevate service delivery across the university and fundamentally redesign the way administration is implemented and experienced at the university.
Together, these initiatives position OSU for significant growth in research, talent development and organizational excellence, offering the next CHRO an unparalleled opportunity to shape the university's workforce strategy during a defining moment in its evolution.
